I simply love this series. Because of its length, the characters have the time to grow, to become three-dimensional. They deal with stuff like co-dependency, homophobia, betrayal, the mechanics of gay sex... but always with humor. It's simply amazing. And the art is breathtaking. This volume is little more angsty than the previous ones, what with the misunderstanding between Masami and Toru and with Toru's refusal to talk about his relationship with Masami with his friends and family, but because of that, it's also really sweet. I especially loved the scene where Atsushi was comforting Masayoshi, that was cute.
