This CD is based on a bestselling manga by Nakamura sensei. It is not to be confused with Junai Romantica (the novel version). There are really two separate stories featuring two separate but interrelated couples. This story revolves around the life of Takahashi Misaki (CV: Sakurai Takahiro), a high school student sitting for University entrance exams. Misaki’s brother Takahashi Takahiro (CV: Kishio Daisuke) has a good friend, Usami Akihiko (CV: Hanada Hikaru), who graduated first class in Law from T university (we can guess what that is) and is currently a best selling author (both in the normal novel and the BL novel world), Takahiro asks Usami to tutor his younger brother. When Misaki went to Usami’s house, he’s SHOCKED to learn that he’s (1) a BL novelist under a different penname; (2) he uses his brother and himself as the main characters in his novel, and (3) HE LIVES IN A ROOM WITH A KING SIZED BED AND A KING SIZED TEDDY BEAR and MANY TOYS. (Nanya adds: This is what makes this manga/drama a classic XD). After an interesting conversation, Misaki convinced Usami (later known as Usagi or rabbit) to teach him and with his aid, he finally got into the M university he wanted even though as a backup student. Misaki now knows that Usagi sensei has been madly in love with his brother for 10 years but the latter doesn’t know it. Worst, on Takahiro’s birthday, he breaks the news that he’s getting married TO A WOMAN (yeah, finally a het … seems like they’re all gone lately). Of course, Usagi is heartbroken (but it seems to me Misaki is crying even more than he is). Anyway, that lifts the curtains for an interesting story featuring Misaki & Usagi. Junjou Egoist The second story revolves around Usagi’s friend Kamijou Hiroki (CV: Itou Kentarou). Also a very bright student specializing in Japanese literature, Hiroki is secretly in love with Usagi, despite knowing that he already has another person in mind (Nanya: You must listen or read the beginning because it’s so touching… very sad but nice). Upset, he went to the park and had a very interesting encounter with a younger man called Kusanagi Nowaki (Kanna Nobutsohi) . Since their meeting, Nowaki often comes to Hiroki’s place, cooks for him, and asks him to teach him with his homework because he is trying to qualify for university. Hiroki at first refused but later he gradually mellows and agrees and then another romance began (Nanya adds: You CANNOT resist a guy like Nowaki, period … such a guy, even I’ll consider marrying him and having his babies despite my personality. He’s that great). However, this is not so easy because Hiroki has a terrible personality and Nowaki also has his own dream to pursue.

The story began with Cartis waking up to find himself in pain and a boy sitting beside him with silver hair and red eyes. He's clagged in a white shirt with blood on it. The location is a floating bed in the middle of a pond with a few corpses lying around *♦*. Arshile soon returned to his chocolate hair and hazel eyes form (thereafter referred to as choco form) and collapsed.
Cartis carried him and the two escaped (later on we'll know they actually got some help from Souha ♥♥♥← boy he is even more beautiful than I first imagined) from the island. Anyway, the story then shifted to 3 years later and Cartis (he's got a doctor's license) was applying medicine to Arshile's back. Then Atobe Rodney (the news reporter) appeared and invited Cartis and Arshile to the wonderful ship "Fanatica". Actually this ship is more than it seems as it's the warmbed for some drug (like opium) trafficking organizations. Rodney wanted Cartis to be the substitute to the magician who couldn't make it (plus he would also like to investigate about the crime that's going on board). Cartis refused IMMEDIATELY but Rodney asked him to reconsider the offer. That night, Cartis took a shower while thinking about Arshile all the time. When he's done, he found Arshile staring at the moon, with his crimson eyes and silver hair (thereafter I refer to this as crimson mode). Arshile said he would board the ship tonight to find "that person" and would leave Cartis because until then, the latter still haven't managed to take him into his arms (I so elegantly avoid the word f*** >v<). Cartis was worried by Arshile's change in personality as well as the fact that he might lose him. After Arshile said that (and smiled in a very lusty and evil way), he turned back into his normal choco self. So, he decided to board "Fanatica" with Arshile. While on board, Arshile saw a butterfly and tried to follow it until he came to a flight of staircases. He slowly descended and heard sounds from a piano. It was a very beautiful melody but it caused Arshile's head to ache. Arshile nearly collapsed when Calme appeared behind him, grabbed him and pointed a gun at his head. He asked Arshile why he was on board the ship, with whom, (all of which the choco Arshile answered truthfully -_-;;) and told Arshile to leave the ship immediately before she set out. Of course, Arshile, Cartis, and Rodney didn't leave the ship. Instead, Cartis used his skills to entertain the guests or -to be precise- charm the ladies on board. The substitute owner Liwen took an interest in Cartis, after hearing the report from Calme earlier, and decided to flirt invite Cartis to join him the next day for a meal the next evening. Cartis recalled Souha who helped him and Arshile to escape from the island 3 years ago and asked Liwen about him because he was with Liwen at the time. Liwen said something happened and Souha could no longer speak (Nanya: oh no!!! ;_;) In the meantime Arshile was getting jealous here and slightly complained to Rodney ♥ (so cute). While talking to Arshile, Rodney noticed someone adding a little something to his champagne. So he gave his drink to Arshile instead -_- ← (Rodney ... hidoi >_<). That evening, Calme and some other men came to Rodney's room but Rodney wasn't awake and instead knocked out the guys so he could have a nice little chat with Calme. Turned out that Calme actually knew Rodney from before (Rodney was his master) and he kindly warned Rodney to leave the ship immediately. It's at this exciting moment when the demo ends >___<

Oka Harehiko (CV: Nojima Kenji) is a normal 17 year old boy who’s been living a rather quiet and normal life until one day, his best friend for four years, Mizaki Kyoutarou (CV: Takahashi Hiroki) suddenly told him that he had someone he liked. Oka was a bit surprised and that his friend had a girlfriend before him and envied his good looks a bit but he wished from the bottom of his heart for his friend’s happiness.
However, when he was introduced to Mizaki’s lover, he was tossed into a completely different world. The lover turned out to be a very cute sixth grader Ichi Nao (CV: Miyata Kouki)! Of course, Oka’s reaction toward Mizaki was: "Hentai! Lolikon"! However, Nao-kun was a lot more mature than other kids of his age. Turned out that was because his mother died when he was really young, leaving his father to raise him. However, his father was very busy so he ate at Mizaki’s store and day by the day, love descended between Mizaki and Nao-kun. In order to be with Nao, Mizaki needed Oka’s help to make the father not become suspicious about the relationship between his son and himself. Oka refused and the two broke into a little "conflict" that ended with Oka, bumping into Ichi Hirofumi (CV: Itou Kentarou). Gradually, he maintained contact with the "gentle papa" and soon learned that he had Nao-kun when he was only 17! Since Nao realized how hard it was to be a single father, he tried to be a good kid. Oka soon fell in love with Ichi papa but Ichi papa was afraid that he might hurt Oka, who was the same age as when he had Nao. That’s why, after hearing from Nao that both Mizaki and Oka were in the final year of their high school, Ichi decided not to meet with Oka in order not to make him risk regretting his life. Oka blamed him for implying that he regretted having Nao. Unfortunately, this conversation was overheard by Nao and the poor boy ran away but had no place to go. So he ended up running to Oka’s place. Oka comforted Nao and the boy realized that Oka was more gentle and less scary than he seemed. In the end, all four solved their uncertainty in love and thus began a difficult but interesting relationship between 4 men (ahem *_* … 3 men and 1 boy). The omake track is about Nao-kun asking "Oka-san" about condoms and how to use them. Oka got worried about his "son’s" growth and decided to talk to Ichi papa. However the "gentle papa" thought Nao was very cautious and he should also start using codoms *O*! (What kind of papa is this xx). Anyway, since talking to papa is no use, Oka turned to Miazaki but Mizaki said this is "their" problem (meaning Oka is in no position to interfere). Oka wanted to say "You’re kidding, I’m Nao’s mama" but of course he couldn’t say it ^^;;.
