Our take
A thirty-year-old virgin gains the power to read minds by touch and learns that the office golden boy is in love with him. A warm, funny office romance, and the source of the hit drama and anime.
Synopsis
Adachi brushes against people on a crowded train and hears their thoughts. At work he touches Kurosawa, the star of the sales team, and finds a head full of adoration aimed at him. Adachi has no idea what to do with that knowledge. A gentle, funny slow burn.
