i am definitely one of the many people who "normally don't read shounen-ai" and by normally i mean... well, never - i never read them. but the art and everything about this was 5 by 5 and it makes me want to gush on and on about it - but i wont so just read it ^O^

It was short but so sweet. I loved how the characters didn't already have some sort of one-sided love or anything like that at the beginning. At the beginning of the week they started going out but it wasn't all lovey-dovey but they just got along naturally and ended up falling in love. Plus I like how there was a reason for the one week dating, it wasn't just a game but he was actually trying.

I just loved it, I can't explain it well enough. It was short and sweet. Just give it a chance.

The only complaint I really have for this manga is that it feels like a setup. It's a great setup and I didn't notice it first time through, but reading it again (this time without stops for months on end since I owned the real thing!) I realized that everything seemed very deliberately planned and really, there doesn't seem to be much of a reason for them to fall in love with each other, at least not that quickly. But don't let this comment affect your enjoyment of this series! I just wanted to throw out my opinion. I think it could be rectified if the story was a bit longer... Alas, the woe of shounen-ai manga, they are too short and thus leaves not enough time for character development! This is definitely one of the better ones out there.

Everytime I read this I feel the urge to scream out KYA~~!!
The story is built around the misunderstandings and confusion cause by the characters' reluctance to say things straightforward. Although that is common and cliche in shounen-ai, I can actually feel it when the characters pull back slightly. Or just about to burst out but holds back in fear of rejection, humiliation. The theme around the "seven days" time limit was quite interesting and entertaining. As the days progress, you can feel the tension rising like a time bomb. I would read this and feel like a week passed.

I'm not particularly fond of the art. Generally it is satisfactory. Sometimes Yuzuru's hair volume is just outrageous. (Seryou is perfect though) Not my favourite, but very suited for the story and a distinct style. I must say I loved the way Seryou was drawn in Volume 1 Chapter 5.2 page 6. CHOU KAWAII.

Overall these two volumes gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling. AND A STRONG YEARNING FOR MORE~~!! Definitely yes for all BL fans. I also recommend reading the manga while listening to the drama cd.

it's interesting that so many people love this who "normally don't read shounen-ai". i normally do read and like BL of all kinds, and you know what? it completely doesn't matter to me for this manga; it is a work of art no matter what the genre. and it's way cool to see great art transcend people's prejudices.

i'm afraid if i try to describe it that this special feeling i have right now will dissipate, so i won't say a lot -- just that it is a perfect manga in that the writing and the art enhance each other; there is so much that lies between the lines of text instead of being spelled out. this isn't normally an art style over which i would wax rhapsodically, but it fits the story so very well i can't imagine anything better.

i want more from the authors.

Oh gosh, where do I begin.
This is on my top 10 favorite shonen ai mangas. It was just so cute and the art is very beautiful and light. Really made the cahracters so... AWWWWWWW

i used to be so against reading any yaoi / shounen ai related mangga, but this opened my eyes. i mean, its one of the very few manga that made me cry. i highly suggest you read it, even if you may be against homos. the plot, characters, everything makes it complete. if you havent read it, read it NOW. this is a touching story about two men and one relationship.

this is one of the best shounen-ai ive evr read.. whenever im bored i just read this again and again, i never get tired of this manga.. Honestly you will love this!!!! and in the end you'll gonna ask for more!! the story is well made and UNIQUE.!!! trust me! a MUST READ. ^_^

Its like candy...short, sweet and just plain yummy. Its a wonderful read, the plot just flow like water. The artwork is gorgeous. As a critique, there are some bumps on the plot, but overall...i highly recommend it to anyone. Its a story that will just make you melt, and smile for the rest of the day.

stumbled upon this, and man is it a nice read.
loved the fact that both of them are looking for love. they both want it, are scared of it yet they put themselves out there risking to get hurt every time. >_<
wish it were longer
