ABOUT
College student Ichika's done with boys who won't commit. She's looking for a proper, long-term relationship…yet because of her flashy appearance, she is often misunderstood. Her determination takes her to a mixer, where after another night of frustration she bumps into Kosei. He's totally up front: He just wants to keep things casual. Yet to Ichika's chagrin, they immediately click, finding more and more common ground. In another universe, they could be great friends, but despite herself, Ichika goes tumbling head over heels. She knows pursuing Kohei is just getting her further and further from her LTR goals… What could one woman compromise for love?
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.
