Yakumo, notorious for taking no students, is persuaded to take him on, and nicknames him Yotaro - the fool. Yotaro has no formal training or elegance, but something about his charisma reminds Yakumo of someone from his past.... More...

Ehhhhhhhh I spent know that this mangaka made this! It's currently a winter 2015-16 anime series! I would love for a group to pick this up, since her artwork is amazing! I love how in her previous yaoi works, she uses mostly washes of colors instead of screentone. I only watched the anime in the background of my TV, but after reading Itoshi no Nekokke, I'll watch it more carefully~
