But this only pisses lovesick Ryoki off, who actually wants Hatsumi to like him. He has another plan to win Hatsumi's good graces: he wants her brother, Shinogu, to be his private math tutor, and he wants his lessons to take place at the Narita's apartment! Shinogu doesn't like it...especially since Hatsumi is starting to fall for Ryoki!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Viz Media","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42558968791124,"sku":"9781591163893","price":8.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0575\/1567\/1636\/files\/9781591163893_p0_v3_s1200x1200.jpg?v=1762851130"},{"product_id":"hot-gimmick-vol-7","title":"Hot Gimmick Vol. 7","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeries: \u003c\/strong\u003eHot Gimmick\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/strong\u003eAihara Miki\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eItem Type: \u003c\/strong\u003ePaperback\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImprint: \u003c\/strong\u003eViz Media\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11\/24\/2004\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN: \u003c\/strong\u003e9781591165026\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeighbors in Love!\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn company-owned rabbit-hutch apartments live tenants who can't afford to live anywhere else, and the apartment complex in which high-school girl Hatsumi Narita lives is ruled over by the rumor mongering, self-righteous Mrs. Tachibana.

His New Year's fete with our hapless heroine Hatsumi didn't go according to plan, so childhood bully\/potential boyfriend Ryoki hightails it back home in a huff. Luckily, Hatsumi's heavenly older brother Shinogu is there to give her a lift back to civilization. A botched burglary at the Narita household leaves Hatsumi panicky and, in an act that goes way against character, Ryoki lends her a hand, but their affections do not go unseen. Will Hatsumi and Ryoki's feelings be able to survive the harsh scrutiny of company-housing life?
