A review by ellelainey
Anti-Romance: Special Edition Vol. 1 by Shoko Hidaka
5.0
I am the BIGGEST fan-girl of Shoko Hidaka's Blue Morning series, and once I'd finished it, I went and bought anything/everything by Shoko Hidaka.
This was SO GOOD!
Ryou Kakitani and Suou Hiroki have been childhood friends, best friends, and now roommates. For SIX YEARS they've been "secretly" in "unrequited" love with each other. Except...they're in love with EACH OTHER and never talk about it, never admit it, have never cleared the air, despite having a feeling that their friendship is starting to change.
Gah! The angst!
There's a lot going on that I don't want to talk about, because it's way more exciting to be surprised, however...the two secondary characters - Ryou's co-worker Towada and Suou's boss, Sakuma - are both intriguing and clever additions to the plot that add some mystery.
I REALLY loved the chemistry between Ryou and Suou, the back and forth of wanting to say something, needing to say something, then backing out at the last minute. I can't wait to read the next volume, to see how this chaotic love story ends.
