Considering it was a debut and old as all hell, it was surprisingly well. It was a short one-shot and the kid was pretty cute. There wasn't a lot of comedy and it was really fast-paced. I will admit I'm a bit biased to Akamatsu's work, but I thought it was pretty wholesome and cute. It's nothing to compare to his later works, however, but it was a comprehensive start and it's nice to see how his art and stories have developed over the years and projects and series. All in all, it was decent, good enough for a beginner in that time period,but not good enough to sell on the market solo without hardcore fans these days.
The story revolves around a high school student named Shinya Matsumoto and his love story, which takes place one summer vacation. Shinya unexpectedly encounters a car accident, which results in a mother and son being taken to a hospital. The son, Daisuke Kirishima, is completely fine while his mother, Reiko Kirishima must stay in the hospital for three weeks and is unable to look after her son thereafter. (Source: MU)
