In the middle of class, Hoshino asks Negishi to go out with him. Negishi refuses, so they settle on walking home together, to the amusement of the class. The next day, Negishi asks Hoshino to go out with her.
Written and illustrated by Minoru Toyoda [ja], the series originated as a one-shot that won the Afternoon Shiki Award's [ja] Grand Prize. The one-shot was turned into a full series, which began serialization in Kodansha's Monthly Afternoon in 2003.[2] The series completed serialization in 2005. Its individual chapters were collected into five tankōbon volumes.[2] In 2012, Shogakukan began re-releasing the volumes.[2]
In February 2005, Del Rey Manga announced that they licensed the series for English publication.[3]
Carl Kimlinger of Anime News Network described it as a "warm, honest adolescent love story", while also stating that it can be repetitive at times.[10] A reviewer for Publishers Weekly expressed similar opinions on the story as Kimlinger. They also compared the illustrations to those of John Porcellino and Jeffrey Brown.[11] In Manga: The Complete Guide, Jason Thompson wrote that the artwork, which he felt was similar to indie comics, complemented the story well.[12]
