this is another one of those yaoi that is less standard fare and thus won't appeal to everyone. it's about two sets of brothers, with more attention paid to the older two who are rivals in kendo. their interactions are believable and for the most part interesting. at times you want them to just put aside their competition, but for the most part the central conflict, that they are both competitive and can't stand to lose a match, is well done although it could have been expanded a bit more. there are some gaps in the narrative, but the artwork is good and overall this is worth picking up.
