I enjoy this manga very much. The artwork is very very nice, the story is well developed and bittersweet. Highly recommended to anyone who likes to read a realistically written yaoi romance. People, read up!
Cold Sleep is originally the first book of Narise Konohara's Cold trilogy, the first book tells the story of a young man losing his memory after a supposed hit-and-run. The young man was then taken in by a quiet older man, who claimed to be his friend. Although the young man had no memory about this man and his own past.
More disturbing still, once he tried to dig deeper into his 'accident', unpleasant things started to come to the surface. Who this young man really was? What type of person he had once been before he lost his memory? And what was the older man's real intention to him? What was their real relationship? More importantly still, how could the young man start a new life when there was so much confusion and uncertainties hovering above him?
Miss Kohohara is a master-storyteller, in this book she deals with human nature and the issues of guilt and regret beautifully. I love how the two main characters are two ordinary guys struggling with themselves and struggling to find their places in the world of strangers; I love the way they clumsily try to be gentle and considerate with one another (though their attempts had backfired more then once). I especially like how the mystery is eventually revealed. Anyway, the Cold trilogy is one of my all time favorite.
