Summary: Misaki is suddenly having some unexpected and odd problems. What started as a need for some college entrance exam tutoring has somehow led him to being romanced by a suave older man who also happens to be his big brother’s best friend. Confused by all of his brand new emotions, Misaki struggles to deal with his suddenly very odd life. And if that wasn’t enough, his suitor, Usami, has plenty of issues of his own. A man-child who decorates his room in giant teddy bears and toys, Usami is a famous novelist who also writes steamy boys’ love novels on the side. When Misaki cracks open one of these books and reads sentences like “Misaki licks every inch of Usami’s hot body”…well, let’s just say that all hell breaks loose.

looking at the title (pure hearted romance) you'd consider when first picking it up that it's bl not yaoi. which is true. JUST. and i mean JUST. when i was first watching bl this had me running away from ep one only to come back when i was a few years older.
and i'm glad i did. cuz when i first watched it, all i could see was SEXUHARA! but actually, once you get past that in ep one, the story is actually veery cute, and the three different couples- egoist and terrorist follow very different stories which all interact with each other and flow differently.
there's a lot of comedy in the series, and it uses panels with just words, kinda like in a manga to convey emotions, which is really effective.
the only thing i'd have to say is, it has trouble deciding whether to be bl or yaoi, and unlike the second series, doesn't stick to one.
