Blue! Blue! Blue!

Takiya Kippei, a young man raised alongside two older sisters, finds himself in an unexpected predicament. Desperate to afford the perfect birthday gift for his lover, he takes on a live-in position at a traditional Japanese ryokan, committing to both residence and employment at the inn to secure the funds he needs. It is within this new environment that Takiya crosses paths with Honjou Masumi, a highly educated man whose demeanor strikes a flawless balance between discipline and warmth. Honjou carries himself with a quiet sophistication, exuding a refined charm that perfectly embodies true maturity. Struck by this encounter, Takiya admits to himself that he has never met anyone quite like him. As the days pass and Takiya continues his duties at the ryokan, his initial admiration begins to shift into something deeper. The more time he spends in Honjou’s presence, the more captivated he becomes, finding his attention drawn away from his original goal and increasingly focused on the enigmatic man who has so effortlessly caught his interest.
