A follow-up to a heavy response to the original yomi-kiri manga by the same title, published 4 months ago.
Good ending follows the main character Utsuki 's interactions with Kurokawa Yuki, a member of the school tennis team, in order for Utsuki to confess his feelings to the captain of the tennis team.
It is implied that the title of the manga is derived from the "good endings" that are achieved in visual novels.
Although the story was once concluded in the yomi-kiri version, the full version includes identical characters and settings.
