Described as a “special fetish romantic comedy,” the story follows Riyo Washisu, the daughter of a powerful yakuza boss who rules over the Kanto region, and Kiritani, the underboss responsible for looking after her.
Kiritani believes Riyo is just a quiet and harmless girl, but he soon discovers her unusual side: she has a unique fetish for being excited by the contrast between the strong and the weak. As Kiritani gets caught up in Riyo’s eccentric personality, the two slowly grow closer and develop a special bond.
The manga is currently serialized on Kodansha’s web manga platform Comic Days. The fifth volume of the series will be released on July 16.
