Our take

The one ordinary son of a showbiz family is pulled into a commercial shoot with an actor who has adored him since childhood. Fast, silly comedy.

On the Essentials Shelf

Synopsis

Izumi Sena wants to draw manga, not perform. Ten years ago he appeared in a wedding commercial in a dress, and his young co-star Ryoma, now a popular actor, has been in love with that girl ever since. A reunion shoot brings the truth out. Complete in seven volumes.
