«✿✿» Uni student (19) x Middle-schooler (14, turning 15) // While going home from her part-time job, Suzune realizes she's being followed by someone...thankfully a young bishie helps her to get away from the stalker-like person. But who is the handsome boy? It turns out he's her cousin, Yuuma, whom she hasn't seen for 7 or 8 years. Now he looks like a completely different person, so Suzune didn't recognize him. Actually, their grandma appeared in Yuuma's dream and told him "You must protect Suzune", so that's why he came to her. Then, he asks if he can stay at her house for a while... ➸ To be honest, I wanted to read this story, because it's by Ikeno Koi, the creator of Tokimeki Tonight! And I was also curious, because compared to that story this has a so different setting...Well, I liked it! It's a pure, sweet, cute romance of "older female x younger male", which I'm a fan of and enjoy reading. Even though I'd have appreciated to see more of their relationship as grown up in the end, for a one-volume-story it's already fine like this, so I recommend it as a light reading. Also, it's from the early 2000s (2001), so the art still has that 90s vibe that I love! [Spoiler] About the cousins thing, it actually turns out it's not incest at all, as the bishounen is not the real cousin Yuuma, but his friend Junpei, who fell in love at first sight seeing Suzune's photo, so he decided to come in Yuuma's place, pretending to be him. Personally, I wouldn't have minded if it was really incest, as that was also a reason why I wanted to read this story, but it's not like I was disappointed, as I totally loved Junpei, cousin or not cousin, so I still liked the story! ➸ By the way, Junpei's father, famous actor Aikawa Sin, was hot!! Also, now I see why the "Misty Boy" title (¯∇¯٥)

Sequel: Futari wa Precure: Max Heart + a lot of alternative versions manga
