MATSUMOTO YOH

Igarashi Ryou has good looks and the perfect job at a bank. He even has a fuck buddy, Takakura Asahi, a charming and stylish older man. They’re madly in love—or so Ryou believes—so he decides to take the next step: he proposes! “I’m not looking for that kind of relationship.” He gets totally rejected, shattering his pride and heart! Ryou throws himself into his work, hoping to forget all about his broken heart. One day, Asahi shows up at the bank asking for a loan—unshaven, dishevelled and shabbily dressed, he looks completely different from before. Things get awkward as their relationship teeters between the personal and professional. Even the section chief, Iwasaki, gets involved! A drama-filled love story between clumsy and timid men!

Seishirou sees this as a chance to change his life. "Shall we try doing this whole 'couple' thing together?" A tall, puppy-like American soldier x a traumatised Japanese ex-soldier. Storyteller Yoh Matsumoto's BL about redemption set in post-war Japan begins!

Kazuma and Yuuji are fraternal twins. The title of this one-shot is 雁字搦め, which means something along the lines of bound tightly, strictly. It especially resonates with the two twins' relationship. Kazuma is the uke you see in the beginning-- he calls out another persons' name during sex with his younger brother Yuuji. After their steamy sex, Yuuji asks him if that is the new person that he is in love with, and wants to pursue. This new subordinate is called Matsuo, and apparently he becomes really embarrassed whenever Kazuma touches him too much. However, when they lay down to sleep, and Yuuji falls asleep next to Kazuma, Kazuma talks about how he really is actually in love with Yuuji, his younger brother....

It is not possible to go against destiny. Still we fall in love. This is an anthology, a compilation of many oneshots on the topic of “tribes”.
