Longing for Something Bigger
From the Eisner Award-nominated Inio Asano, creator of Solanin and Nijigahara Holograph , comes one of his most challenging works yet-an intense teen romance set in what may at first glance be one of the sleepiest places in Japan.
When Koume and Keisuke's relationship begins to take shape, it is apparent that they are both searching for something. Maybe Keisuke wants something more than a kiss from the fair Koume. Maybe Koume is looking for someone better than Misaki, the local playboy. But what they find in each other over the course of a summer might be far greater than anything they were expecting.
Their lives are going to change. And this will all transpire before high school exams!
Translated from the Japanese.
