Closest Love to Heaven: Volume 2 has been released to the public!!! Thanks for much for everyone's support in getting this manga off the ground! ♥

The price for the manga is ¥1200 with three chapters in between. This manga has a rating of "PG" - "PG-13" as of the second volume. There is some violence that has come up due to the plot. There is no death or anything like that involved though.

"Synopsis from Volume One:
Momoka is a popular girl who has many friends because of her beautiful looks, kind heart, and her care for animals. Masuru is a quiet outcast who's seen as the "bad boy" of his school that many people avoid. One day, Momoka finds Masuru interesting and decides to become his friend. It will take a lot more than kindness to make this boy open up to a stranger. Just what is the secret Masuru is hiding?"

"Synopsis from Volume Two:
'Who are the new people falling to the Earth right before our eyes?' Momoka and Masuru find out what's really going on with their world. Masuru seems more tentative to help these people and it begins to put a strain on their relationship. Several of them know his name and want to speak to him, which worries Momoka more. When Masuru finally confesses his feelings...will Momoka be willing to give him a chance? Even if she doesn't know all about his past?"

Thank you for your time and if you would like me to deliver them to you, please put down your address in a response to this message!

[ okay! so, a few things. it turns out that there are like angels that are being sent down from heaven to this ONE PARTICULAR place and they DON'T KNOW WHY. it's about like fifty people by now that are just winged angels just standing around like wtf. they all know who Masuru is and Momoka is like wtf is going on.

so there's a confrontation with Masuru and one of the angels (without the mole on her face). Momoka says that she wants to help her, but she doesn't want any help. her name is Loi and she's trying to keep tabs on someone that she was watching from heaven; Yuki. he wears a heart necklace to remind him of his home. he's a very sweet guy and even is seen crying sometimes with talking with Momoka when she talks about wanting to be with Masuru. she's found looking like this most of the time since she seems to be one of the only angels that can hide her wings.

there's a very pretty illustration of the girl with some very good coloring that's included inside the mangas (like poster size).

at the tale end of the chapter, Masuru finally kisses Momoka. it's like, the happiest day of her life but she's so stunned because her best friend is standing RIGHT THERE. and he looks pretty shocked! remember seeing that guy from the front of the manga? it's her friend Chikako and yes, he does have a female name. he's seen blushing and then running off with tears in his eyes when he sees them. he talks earlier in the manga about how he loves someone so much but doesn't have the courage to say anything so Momoka tries to help him.

there's a bonus chapter about a random couple in the school: meet Yuuri (no tattoos, obv) and Masayuka. Yuuri is a little bit of a ladies man but he's so dumb and dense about it. it makes Masayuka mad who just wants to study and get out of this school. it's not known why she cuts her hair off but she's very short and gets annoyed easily that Yuuri is so dumb. but they've been friends for a while and Masayuka talks (to herself) about how she should tell her feelings to him.

and if you needed clarification: Masuru=Mayu, Momoka=Mikoshiba, Loi=Loki, Yuki=Yui, Chikako=Chiyo, Yuuri=Kashima Yuu, and Masayuka=Masayuki Hori. enjoy reading all of that and i am so sorry for this tldr bit but he is trying to BRING COUPLES TOGETHER OK??

and yes, i do realize that none of the images now look like Nozaki's work. JUST PRETEND?? OKAY? ]
