A single moment can change one's life forever... While Kiichi is being the usual "big brother" figure to Naoya, taking him out for new clothes and splurging on a watch, the jewelry store in which they’re shopping is robbed! As the criminals take our two men hostage, Naoya starts to ponder his superficial and fickle existence while looking down the barrel of a gun. When Reiji gets wind of the hostage situation, he wonders if he will ever see Naoya again!

Summary: Yet another quality volume of Love Mode
Comment: I never tire of Yuki Shimizu's Love Mode. This volume concentrates on Aoe Kiichi's love for Naoya! And, of course, it also addresses Aoe Reiji's love for Naoya and vice versa. One true joy of this volume is the insert story, Fly Me to the Heaven. I like the way Yuki Shimizu leaves the ending open to interpretation. Love Mode lovers will not be disappointed.

Summary: A gem of a volume! This series is truly captivating!
Comment: Love, sex, angst, passion, excitement, intrigue, comical, heart-wrenching , this volume has it all. Reiji's and Naoya's story continues in this excellent volume. Their romance hits a snag and Kiichi is of course there to help and this does provide some hilarious moments. Kiichi's character is well explored here and you just have to love this ever proactive good doctor. We are given glimpses of his romance with his stoic housekeeper and introduced to a mysterious character from Kiichi's past, which I hope means more on Kiichi in future volumes. The waiting is of course over as Reiji and Naoya passionately consummate their love. I love the events leading to it and just have to chuckle at the incident with the sofa.
Their story certainly leaves me one happy and satisfied reader until I come to the separate story involving Seiichi (one of Reiji's sexy male escorts at B&B) and his young client, Tomoki. This story is hauntingly compelling and deeply emotional. It leaves me virtually in tears as it is just so poignant and heart breakingly sad. The mangaka does leave us with a note that we could interprete the ending as we like. But her few final impactful panels in this beautiful, moving and heart-rending love story leave no room in my mind to think otherwise.
Fortunately I am somewhat cheered up by the last 2 bonus stories on our lovers. The first one on my favorite couple, Reiji and Naoya, is sexy and sweet while the second one on Kiichi and his housekeeper is one big teaser!
This mangaka is truly talented in emotions and characters development and Love Mode is one spellbinding series. And now to start from Vol 2 again...
