Junjo Romantica

Misaki has a lot to worry about. He's trying to get into the prestigious Mitsuhashi University, though his grades are less than stellar. Also, his new tutor is the famous author Akihiko Usami, a moody, pushy man who's giving him some shockingly sexual advances. But the biggest problem of all is that Akihiko is using a pen name to write explicit boy's love novels starring himself and Misaki's brother!

Through an odd twist of events, Misaki now finds himself living in Akihiko's spacious apartment. As he tries to sort out his feelings for his strange, yet handsome, roommate, Misaki also can't help but notice that everyone at the university is keeping their distance from him. Not only that, but it seems like Akihiko has found a new object of admiration for his boy's love novels...

Hiroki is a man mired down by his unrequited love for Akihiko. Just as his life hits its lowest point, he has a chance meeting with a man who has never let anything hold him back: Nowaki. His name means "typhoon", and just like his namesake, Nowaki is about to take Hiroki on a whirlwind ride that will turn everything upside-down.

Akihiko might write his fair share of boy's love novels, but he also writes mainstream books that have won several awards and made him famous throughout Japan. As such, he has a very close relationship with his editor; she even has a key to his apartment. Misaki finds that very strange... could there be more between those two than meets the eye?

Five years after Hiroki and Nowaki met, Nowaki disappeared without a trace. For a year he was gone, and Hiroki thought he might never see Nowaki again. But then a simple postcard arrived in the mail: "It's been a while. I will be returning to the country on May 30th." Hiroki is swept up again, fighting between love and hatred for the unpredictable, irresistible Nowaki.

Nowaki has set the time and place: tonight at 7, in front of the restaurant where they always used to eat. Now it's up to Hiroki to choose... will he meet Nowaki there and move things forward, or will he decide that he's had enough of being strung along, and end the relationship once and for all?
