Seinen Hakkaten

Manabu is a high school student who appears entirely detached from matters of the heart, yet he secretly works part-time as a writer for an adult magazine. His quiet life takes an unexpected turn when a group of classmates attempts to pick a fight with him, only for him to be rescued by Yamaguma, a younger student from his school. Despite being widely popular among his peers, Yamaguma knows little about romance and harbors deep anxieties, particularly regarding his older sister's employment at a nightclub. As their paths cross more frequently, Manabu makes an effort to help Yamaguma overcome his exaggerated reactions to the provocative nature of his writing. Through this gradual process of desensitization, the two boys find themselves drawn into a dynamic neither anticipated. The simple warmth of their hands touching sparks something profound, capturing the reckless beauty and vulnerability of youth. What begins as an unlikely connection slowly blossoms into a tender, bittersweet chronicle of first love, documenting the emotional awakening of two young men navigating the complexities of affection for the very first time.
