** During the ''Gun and Heaven'' series we learn of Jack constantly keeping an eye out on other men around Roy, as the poor guy who'd just kissed Roy learns with Jack's multiple warning shots. Then there's rather than risking anybody learning of any information that could possibly put Roy in danger, Jack demands they move out of the country and kill the man Roy asked to look into his parentage. To say this causes some issues between the two would be an understament.

For it to be a May December Romance, there needs to be at least a 30 year gap in age between the two


* MayDecemberRomance: Masa was - apparently - in his mid to late teens when Kai was born. He spends the majority of Kai's childhood acting like his big brother... which is why he has more than a few issues with how he feels about him later on. Kai, otoh, doesn't see the problem.

* NonLinearStory: No, you did not miss four books between chapter 1 and chapter 2. Yes, you are going to have to pay ''really'' close attention to things like uniforms, scars and hair-cuts if you want to try to figure out which stories and chapters go where in the overall storyline. No, the chapters that interrupt story arcs haven't been accidentally put in the wrong place. And yes, expect multiple character origins told ''after'' they've been introduced for a couple of volumes. For anyone who gets lost, Kei's long hair and Masa's scar are good temporal landmarks.

However, their relationship won't be an easy one... since after Enjouji's mother Hotaru dies, she leaves him a letter revealing his heritage. Which happens to be linked to a pòwerful Yakuza clan, whose leader Takeshi Sagano is Enjouji's long lost father. Enjouji and Ranmaru attempt to keep up with their lives and go to college peacefully, but the Yakuza won't leave them alone, and specially not when Enjouji's half-brother Kai takes an interest in Ranmaru himself...

The story centers on the relationship between Kei Enjouji, a TallDarkAndSnarky highschool student, and Ranmaru Samejima, a HeirToTheDojo. Enjouji fell for Ranmaru almost at first sight when they were kids and he saw Ranmaru practising his kendo moves, and started pursuing a relationship with him. Ranmaru is at first reluctant, but Enjouji perseveres and they become boyfriends anyway.

* CrazyJealousGuy: Ranmaru acts like this a bit about Enjouji, but it's nowhere near the serious extent to which Enjouji acts around Ranmaru. Apparently it's InTheBlood because Kai acts the same way around Masa. Then of course, there's Jack, who will kill you if you sleep with Roy. No, literally. He will take a sniper gun and put a bullet through your brain if you fuck his boyfriend.
