Rainbow Days, Vol. 12

Four male friends support each other through the colorful ups and downs of teenage love.

These four friends couldn’t be more different: Natsuki Hashiba, a dreamer who longs for love, Tomoya Matsunaga, a self-centered playboy, Keiichi Katakura, a winsome guy with a hidden saucy streak, and Tsuyoshi Naoe, a socially awkward nerd who loves anime, manga, and games. Together their high school days are as vibrant as rainbows!

Mari has told Anna that she’s in love with her. Will their friendship now change, and where does that leave Natsuki and Mattsun in their unrequited loves?
