HALL OF FAME

A circle that had been building one-shots took its first step into a continuing story here. Kyonyuu no Tomodachi to Tsukiau made no Hanashi Zenpen stands in the hall as the starting point of a series that grew to four instalments.

It opens when Takai Mitsuki, a classmate and friend from whom the protagonist had drifted apart after something that happened between them, asks him to help her study, and he finds himself facing her again in the school library after classes. Set at school, it is an adult doujinshi about two people carrying a misunderstanding until they become a couple.

What readers keep returning to is how it draws the curtain just where the next part becomes impossible not to want. The weight of the story rests on the protagonist's sense of inferiority and his regret, and with everyday scenes set between them it is built as a story of adolescent feelings that will not hold still.

Fuguta-ke has released its work only on FANZA since 2021. This was the circle's fifth, from July 2023. It was first announced as a story in two parts, but the series added a middle part and an epilogue and ran on until October 2024. From here the titles, too, began to promise a story up to getting together, a pattern later series would carry on.

On FANZA's doujin charts it climbed to fourth over 24 hours and seventh for the week. The series was collected in a printed book in 2025 and has since spread to digital editions sold in instalments and to a live-action version. It stands 143rd among the hall's doujin works.
