I think it's a nice story about two boys from "different worlds" (one is popular and the other belongs to a "cinema club" so, he isn't). It envolves love, and it becomes pretty sexu4l but that's why we read it, I can only assume. I still don't understand why in most every yaoi (Junjou romantica, Dakaretai Otoko 1-i ni Odosarete Imasu, for example) there's always a rape. I'm not sure about how to feel about it, because the one who forces the other part eventually apologizes and recognize that what he did was clearly wrong. And with that the story goes, but they put itin a way that seems almost natural, it's...weird. Anyways, they both recognize their mistakes and eventually make it work.

Synopsis

Mine thought his high school life would be just like a movie. He would fall in love, confess, and have a girlfriend. But, that's not how Mine's high school love story goes. Instead, Mine meets Hachikaku, a fellow student suffering from erectile dysfunction. Through a series of movie-esque jumps, Mine rouses Hachikaku's slumbering junior. (Source: Fantasista Inc.)

The first chapter contains a dubcon scene typical of this particular subgenre; yknow, the kind of cliched situation where one of the main characters have some inexplicable PROBLEM and the only way to solve it is by doing SEX which of course is UNEXPECTED by the other party so there's NO and WAIT but also it feels GOOD now WHAT SHOULD I DO It's easily the weakest part of the story, and as much as I'm used to it, it does besmirch my enjoyment a little bit. But aside from that, it's a pretty cute BL featuring a typical popular hunk x cute nerd pair. The bondsbetween MC and ML are developed quite decently for a single tankoubon story, and the romance is resolved nicely. Art is also pretty delightful, albeit the smut scene feels kinda perfunctory at times. Overall, an enjoyable read if you can accept the usual BL dubcon shenanigans.
