Hmmm, this is good but I find it frequently confusing, especially in the beginning when I had no idea who was who. This centers around 3 couples and switches back and forth frequently. First it’s about Ito, who leaves his family home to go live in the country, but when easily scared by bugs one too many times runs outside butt-naked and runs into Hitomi, the gay town doctor who is interested in Ito immediately. They end up being a fairly minor couple in this manga. Then there’s Sawato, the lead vocalist of a band who returns home to take up a town-chief role after his famous and adored grandma passes away. He is pursued by the cheeky Daito, who Sawato really hates until his elderly housekeeper (I think) get sick. Daito comforts (non sexually) him and genuinely helps him and then Sawato agrees to help him in exchange for Daito creating pottery for some kind of town event. Then one day Daito get knocked unconscious during a mudslide and loses all his memories of when they grew especially close. Sawato is crushed emotionally, but Daito falls for him all over again. Lastly, there’s the abused Hizuru and yakuza Youmei, who (I think) was in love with the murdered former yakuza head. Poor Hizuru is in unrequited love with the broken, emotionally empty Youmei. Finally, they seem to turn a corner when Hizuru asks to sever their relationship because he has to go kill the recently discovered murderer, but he gets kidnapped with Ito, who’s there coincidentally.
