Next comes Real Love by Mitsuki Oda. Twins Shu and Shun have no luck in love until Shu gets reacquainted with her former lover, Naomichi. While their past love fell apart, could it be that a relationship like the one they shared is what they have been looking for all along?
Third will be Love for Dessert by Hana Aoi, another Anime Expo and Otakon bestseller. Another collection of shorts, the title story is about Rei, a cheerful and happy-go-lucky girl who loves sweets, and her grumpy co-worker Kazune, who doesn't like whipped cream until he kisses it off her.
