Story
Enemies who become friends open Pandora's box together and search for a place where they can live their truth – a self-contained coming-of-age omnibus. A must-read for older teens and adult fans of seinen and LGBTQ+ series like Welcome Back, Alice, The Flowers of Evil, and Boys Run the Riot.
The student Mishima is mercilessly bullied because of his homosexuality and feels left out in his hopelessly rural hometown. He's only really alive when he secretly puts on a stolen lipstick belonging to his single mother. When he loses the lipstick, he catches Kirino, the star of the soccer team and one of his worst tormentors, secretly trying it on himself on the school rooftop. So begins a bittersweet summer in search of a place where they can both live as their true selves – but Pandora's box doesn't close so easily.
