Miki is a studious high school senior who believes that truth, beauty and the pursuit of excellence are much more important than boys. This changes when a mysterious new boy arrives at Fukuyama High. The new boy, Hiro, seems determined to be a loner, but his antisocial behavior intrigues Miki. Determined to break through Hiro’s walls, she tries everything she can think of to become a part of his life. Eventually, Hiro agrees to hang out with Miki, but only if she promises not to question his mysterious lifestyle.
A suspensful set-up, beautiful art (softer than most manga) and unique layouts make this a satisfying, fast read. The twist at the end may be hard for some readers to buy, but overall, this book is worth a quick look.
