Ripples in the River
かわにさざなみ
Kawa ni Sazanami
Tamba and Utagawa are not a new couple. They have shared their lives for more than ten years. This Boys' Love series is a string of sweet episodes about two grown men who are still head over heels. A decade in, each of them can still fluster the other, and Uta in particular has never quite gotten over his luck. Later stories go back to the start. The two meet in high school in separate classes and slowly become close. Their present life as adults keeps showing up alongside those memories. There is no big conflict to get through before the romance. The pleasure is in small moments and steady affection. It suits readers who want a settled, loving couple instead of a will they or won't they plot.
