What happens

Kimi to Boku (Japanese: 君と僕。; lit. 'You and I') is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Kiichi Hotta. It was serialized in Square Enix's shōnen manga magazine Monthly Shōnen Gangan from January 2003 to 2004, in Gangan Powered from 2004 to 2009, and in Monthly GFantasy from May 2009 to March 2022. The series follows four teens, Yūta and Yūki Asaba, Shun Matsuoka, and Kaname Tsukahara, who grew up together and a half-Japanese transfer student Chizuru Tachibana who joins the circle of friends. An anime television series adaptation by J.C.Staff aired from October to December 2011 and a second season aired from April to June 2012. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
