futekiya Licenses Boys' Love (BL) Titles from Tokyomangasha
Kazuki Natsume's NIGHTS BEFORE NIGHT, MODS, I HATE, and BY MY SIDE to be released on futekiya!
Ikebukuro, Japan - futekiya, the online Boys' Love (BL) manga subscription service, is delighted to announce the license acquisition of the following titles* by Kazuki Natsume from Tokyomangasha:
MODS
When his sister gets scammed, Tora takes it upon himself to save up enough to make the money she'd
lost back. Responding to an ad looking for a "hotel pick-up driver" leads him into gay escort service
"Rain," where he gets assigned to Shiro, their biggest moneymaker. Tora says he isn't gay and definitely
isn't interested in Shiro's services, but can he really knock it when he hasn't even tried it?
NIGHTS BEFORE NIGHT
It's been a long time since Haru, owner of the gay escort service "Rain," left his yakuza days behind. But
when the Ichijo clan, the group he had once belonged to, says he's the only civilian they can trust to hide
the clan head's troublemaking son Yukitaka in line, there seems to be no choice for him but to follow suit.
There's just one problem, though - Yukitaka looks just like his half-brother Shigure, Haru's lost love... A
must-read for MODS fans!
I HATE
27-year-old Nozomi Hirose has dated girls before, but he's never even been able to kiss any of them. He
puts all the blame for his little problem on his old high school classmate Kiriya, who randomly asked if
they can be kissing buddies - friends who kiss sometimes. What happens when they meet again as
adults, ten years after Hirose ran out on a kiss that went on for way too long?
BY MY SIDE
Kei and Chiyo have been each other's best bros for the past ten years, and now they're living in
neighboring apartments as adults. Chiyo thinks that after spending most of their lives together, he knows
everything there is to his friend...until he walks in on Kei, moaning his name in the dark.
* Release dates to be announced later.
