Hoshikuzu no Prince

A manga about a young man who begins working as an idol singer while looking for his childhood love in 1970′s Tokyo.

I’m a huge fan of Yumio Kobayashi’s other series Nigakute Amai so I naturally picked this up. The story of two star-crossed lovers is nothing new but I immediately loved both the characters and became invested in their quest to find each other. Actually, now that I think about it it this will be nothing but a tease until the happy ending. Also Kobayashi is a master of creating truly evil adversaries who will no doubt torture these two relentlessly.

I’m probably going to be endlessly frustrated reading this…
