I have v. 1-2 in paperback of the ones published in 2004. I am a fan of this mangaka, and like most of her work. She sticks to the tough seme timid but defiant uke clichés but they work! Distinctive artwork too!

Review originally published at mangaupdates.com in February, 2008.
Ah, the undertow that is Koujima-sensei...
This was my first introduction to Koujima-sensei. The story and art was deceptively simplistic. I completed Vol 1 in my first sitting, but I couldn't help but be pulled under and read it again in the same sitting. Hours later, I found myself still reading it. Over and over! I've picked it up over the months and reread it as well - which is highly unusual for me.
There were a few scenes (1. the couple times when where Orito was overcome with emotions and lost his usually cool and in-control demeanor and 2. the scenes with Ryuya and his best friend. The pain is palpable! God I love that angst and crazed-possessiveness) were incredibly heart-rending and heart-stirring.
I found the art intriguing and unique. It was vivid and eye-catching.

Not as good as volume 1. Now that the two are a couple, the angst seems overdone. Recommended for die-hard yaoi fans, but there are better titles for casual fans.
