Stories of love in 1K apartment

Title: 1K apartment no koi
mangaka: Fujiyama Hyouta
language: english (BLISS)
licensed by: Juné
Genre: Yaoi
Summary (from Cece -jpqueen-):This single volume manga should be exactly what you need if you're looking for a simple, heart-warming read. The manga revolves around two couples, neighbours living on the same floor of a rented building. Both couples are faced with similar situations: one boy is in love with his best friend, who later discovers perhaps he loves the other too. However, the characters go about forming their relationships in different ways. Whereas one couple is faced with the hardships of the past, the other faces the difficulties of adapting to homosexual life (the former having found it not difficult at all, weirdly enough). There are boys being sappy, there are boys being ridiculously horny, and there are boys being simply boys who just want to be with one another. I only wish this manga continued on to at least one more volume because I felt the couples' stories could have been told in a little more detail. Unfortunately, that's not the case. It's still a very enjoyable read nonetheless.

note: 1K is a Japanese abbreviation to describe a room with kitchen.
