After failing to find Mr. Right in several athletic teams, he settles on the Film Club and announces his intentions, only for retired Vice President Rei Inaba to make a stunning declaration: “There is 100% no way you’re going to find a boyfriend here.” That very same day, however, it’s Rei himself who kisses Shion and asks him out! What does it all mean? Is this really the love of Shion’s shojo dreams, or is Rei just a pretty face who won’t make room for anyone else in his life? One thins is for certain: Shion Yoshino won’t give up without a fight!

STANDARD, PRIMARY, DM AND VARIANT COVERS

Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.

In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.

The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
