8	Touji Seryou was famous in his school for his good looks and an unusual habit: he would go out with anyone who confesses to him first on Monday, be a perfect boyfriend and then break up with that person a week after. One Monday, Yuzuru Shino, a ''male'' senior, asked Seryou out on a whim to see how he would react and Seryou accepted. Thus, the two started a [[TitleDrop seven day]] relationship.

15	!!''Seven Days'' presents examples of:
16
17	%%* BrilliantButLazy: Common opinions regarding Seryou and archery.
18	* TheCasanova: Seryou seems to be one but in truth, he is serious about relationships, just in a rather abnormal way. He is also a bit of a ChasteHero.
19	* FirstNameBasis: Yuzuru's surname and the name of Seryou's first crush are both pronounced Shino (but written with different kanji), prompting Seryou to ask for Yuzuru's permission to use first names right away when they first went out.
20	%%* HiddenDepths: The {{Aesop}} of the story.
21	* JapaneseSchoolclub: Both Yuzuru and Seryou are talented members of the archery club at school.
22	%%* LapPillow: A rare male-male example in volume 1.
23	* LookingForLoveInAllTheWrongPlaces: Seryou's one-week dates is to find a person whom he can love and who loves him. Ironically, that only makes the people who date him think they are just his flings and consequently treat the relationship as a weekly habit.
24	* QueerRomance: Yuzuru and Seryou’s developing romantic relationship is the focus of the story.
25	* {{Seme}}: Along with {{Uke}}, unusual for the BoysLoveGenre for which this is virtually an OmnipresentTrope, averted. Neither of the two main characters fits obviously into this role at all.
26	%%* SleepCute: Yuzuru on Seryou on their date at the movies.
27	* TrialPeriodDating: Popular student Touji Seryou goes out with every girl who asks him out, but only for the duration of [[TitleDrop seven days]]. The plot revolves around the trial dating between him and another ''male'' student, who asked him out on a whim to see how he would respond.
