A Quick Recap

Completely distraught at her father leaving her mother and herself behind, Miu confides in her two neighbours, who happen to be brothers. They console her, telling her that they’ll be her brothers now, and they all grew up as close as family.

10 years later, we learn that the three are still incredibly close, almost too close. With Miu having strong feelings for one of the brothers. She talks about how the two boys are so different, it’s hard to believe that they’re actually brothers. With her crush being mature, about to go off to study medicine, and the other brother being a bit of a womanizer. To the extent that he offers himself to Miu should his brother get snatched away.

My Thoughts on the Manga

This manga is absolutely going to be centered on a love triangle. It reminds me a little bit of Tiger and Dragon, but the character dynamics are all just a little bit different. This sort of story usually isn’t exactly my cup of tea, however I will read on a bit to see how it continues.

I do like how the brothers were made to be so different, but I don’t think we were shown enough of Miu to be able to form an opinion of her. All we know is that she likes a boy.
