CGiii Comment

Cheap, amateur and unconvincing.

And, what is it with the Japanese and the obligatory public swimming pool scene?

The(ir) Blurb...

Mr. Aio is a teacher at an all boys boarding school, and when his boyfriend breaks up with him he gets over her by having sex, with a guy. The guy he has sex with is a new student at the school and in his very own class. Sora Amakami, the new student, is in love with Mr. Aio and wants to be with him. Mr. Aio is very terrified of having someone find out what happened between them (before the school year started), and doesn't want to continue the relationship. But where Mr. Aio is afraid of someone finding out, Sora Amakami has no real fear of anyone finding out. Slowly you will see Sora Amakami get Mr. Aio to fall in love with him from simply seeing each other more, to a emotionally heart wrenching scene towards the end. But on their way to finding love together, their love is plagued by death, pain, loss, and secret loves that will shock you but are also at times very obvious.
