A sweet "aww"-inspiring tale of school life begins!!At school, Kyouko Hori is known for being smart, attractive, and popular. On the other hand, her classmate, the boring, gloomy Izumi Miyamura tends to get painted as a "loser fanboy." But when a liberally pierced and tattooed (not to mention downright gorgeous) Miyamura appears unexpectedly on the doorstep of secretly plain-Jane homebody Hori, these two similarly dissimilar teenagers discover that there are multiple sides to every story...and person!

Jun 20, 2021This was a very cute story that, I think, a lot of my students would relate to because they have very different sides of themselves when they go home, particularly with how many of my students become the caretaker for younger siblings when they leave school. I appreciate Miyamura's side of things as well. He doesn't want people to get the wrong impression of him because of his tattoos, but to him, they are works of art, not a sign of being "hardcore". The dress code at my school is pretty strict, so students are constantly having to take out piercings or cover tattoos while on campus, and I'm sure those studs go right back in their ears/noses/eyebrows when they leave for the day. The story is also a nice affirmation for their friendship that lets you be your true self. Read Full Review
