is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Kaoru Mori. Originally written as Japanese: [[doujinshi]], it was later published by Enterbrain in February 2003. Since 2006, Mori has continued to irregularly publish new chapters of the series in Harta and Aokishi. A second volume was released in September 2014.
Written and illustrated by Kaoru Mori, the series originated as Japanese: [[doujinshi]], which was subsequently published by Enterbrain in Japanese: [[tankōbon]] form on February 24, 2003.[1] Beginning in 2006, Mori has been irregularly publishing new chapters in Enterbrain's Harta magazine.[2] In 2021, Mori began publishing the chapters in Enterbrain's Aokishi magazine instead.[3] In April 2023, Mori released a chapter with only five pages completed due to her health.[4] A second Japanese: tankōbon volume was released in September 2014.
At San Diego Comic-Con 2007, CMX announced that they licensed the series for English publication.[5]
A columnist for Manga News felt the artwork was not as good as that in Mori's next work Emma but was still satisfactory. They also praised the characters, while also describing the story as "uneven".[6] Katherine Dacey of Manga Critic praised the artwork and overall story, though she felt some of the chapters were unfinished.[7]
In the 2015 edition of the Kono Manga ga Sugoi! guidebook's list of the top 20 manga for male readers, the series ranked eighth.[8]
