Kon and his friends are wonering if the super good-looking guy who seems to turn down all the ladies, Iida, is secretly gay, so they come up with the bright idea to confess to him to see. Kon draws the short straw and confesses, but although Iida turns him down saying he isn't gay, he's so supportive that Kon can't bring himself to tell him the truth. He finally works up the courage, takes Iida to his house, and fesses up to the lie, after which he and Iida end up becoming friends and watching porn once a week under the guise of finding Iida's "preferences." But the truth is, Iida is totally gay and in the closet, but he's kinda starting to fall for Kon. A surprisingly cute and wholesome high school love story, if you ignore the fact they're bonding over porn. Trigger warning: attempted outing.

Joji is a kind-hearted gangster who ran into the male prostitute, Yuu, when he was in trouble, and now he can't help but worry about Yuu. Joji keeps telling Yuu to stop selling himself and start over, but when that doesn't work, Joji is willing to be his customer, himself. But when it comes time for Yuu to face his past, he realizes that Joji may have been involved in his biggest tragedy. This story wasn't particularly interesting to me, but the characters are fine.
