Junjou Romantica dj - Chika * Chika

A one-volume series that kicks off as a side-story from Junjou Romantica, featuring the characters from Romantica and Egoist. The first part flashes back to the younger days of Akihiko Usami and Kamijou Hiroki, while the second part is a cute story about the younger Misaki and his brother Takahiro.

Popular for Junjou Romantica, Shungiku's earlier works were more samurai romance/yaoi of this sort. Here we have a basic spoiled brat and his bodyguard developing feelings for one another.

The Hybrid Child is an amazing 'doll' that can grow if it is lavished with enough love and care from its owner.

The tragic swordsman Seya learns to love again with the help of his Hybrid child, Yuzu. The final tale tells the story of Kuroda, the creator of the Hybrid Child designs, and how his lost love inspired their creation.
