Hirano to Kagiura

High school freshman Akira Kagiura has spent the past six months sharing a dorm room with Taiga Hirano, an older student whose upbeat, attentive nature quickly put him at ease. What began as nerves about dorm life has turned into a comfortable routine, built on Hirano’s steady support and the everyday closeness of living together.

As Kagiura finds himself leaning on Hirano more with each passing day, his appreciation deepens into feelings he can’t ignore. With only six months left before their time as roommates ends, he resolves to finally define the bond he values so much—before it slips into the past.
