School Trip: Joined a Group I’m Not Close To (October 18, 2025, Japan)

High schooler Asahi Hioki finds himself alone during a school trip, until he’s unexpectedly placed in a group with the school’s elite-known as the “Four Heavenly Kings.” Awkward moments soon turn into undeniable sparks when Tsukasa Watarai, the most popular and charming in school, starts showing him an intense kind of affection. For Asahi, who knows nothing about love, this trip becomes an unforgettable journey of discovery as jealousy, confusion, and first love collide in a heart-pounding teenage romance. This is based on the popular BL Novel – a jealous school prince vs. an ordinary boy in a pure, possessive love story.

I would really like to get my hands on this book because as you may have guessed it I AM IN LOVE! I think the characters are so adorable and shed a new light on what it means to be popular. Every week when a new episode would release, I would rewatch the previous episodes. If you would like some wholesome love and awkward relationship this is definitely for you. I think you will fall in love with the characters and the storyline.
