Pink Gene

Pink Gene is a seven-volume collection of standalone stories centered on passionate, mature heterosexual romances. In one tale, high school student Ayase harbors a secret crush on her chemistry teacher, Fugiki. After accidentally witnessing him kissing a married colleague in the music room, she playfully teases him, leading to an unexpected kiss between them. However, Fuguki suddenly begins ignoring her, leaving Ayase desperate to uncover his true feelings and wondering if a genuine relationship will ever be possible. Another story follows Madoka, the sadistic president of the art committee, who finds herself captivated by Yuki, an innocent newcomer with a beautiful face. Unable to resist, she delights in tormenting him before making her romantic intentions known. Elsewhere, Asako secretly pines for her friend Miwa, a notorious womanizer who constantly flirts with everyone. Following a particularly reckless episode, he abruptly decides to date a reluctant Asako. Though she knows his wandering eye will eventually cause trouble, she is entirely unprepared when her greatest romantic rival turns out to be a dog. In yet another narrative, Chijiru struggles to win the attention of her aloof classmate, Maki. Her life takes a dramatic turn when she rescues a young boy from harassment in the park, only to discover he is actually Nakajou—Maki’s older brother, who possesses an angelic face and a dangerously seductive nature. Now, Chijiru must determine whether her feelings for Maki can survive the overwhelming pressure of Nakajou's allure. The collection also features Hold Me Baby, a direct sequel to Kiss me Baby.
