Sex Friends

Jiro has no interest in the heavy burdens of love or affection. For him, physical intimacy is purely a fleeting indulgence—intense in the moment, but entirely meaningless once it ends. His detached approach to life takes an unexpected turn at work when he crosses paths with Toua, a former college classmate who has since become a model. However, Toua secured his position through deception on his resume. To ensure Jiro keeps this secret, the two strike a physical arrangement, sparking a complicated and unconventional relationship. Despite their agreement, Toua proves to be a deeply flawed partner. He is brash, entirely lacking in tact, and notoriously promiscuous. Jiro recognizes that Toua’s abrasive personality and reckless habits are impossible to change, yet they share an undeniable and frustratingly perfect physical chemistry. Their connection remains strictly carnal; Jiro knows exactly how to touch Toua, but understands almost nothing about the man himself. This debut manga by acclaimed newcomer Ari Uehara explores the boundaries of desire without emotional attachment. The release includes four exclusive digital-only pages.
