Keishirou and Hikaru are a couple famous for their togetherness.  They're big jokers, and always end up by saying 'Ai ga areba!' which means something like 'as long as there's love!'.  However, there's no romance, and Hikaru starts to get worried, watching other couples, that Keishirou doesn't love her romantically, but just as a friend...

Nanbo no Mon ya!!
Ran in Za Margaret Aug 1993
Kaku's school, which has no uniform and is very fashion-conscious, is right beside a boy's school.  Kaku noticed one of the guys on the baseball team, Hiyorikun, started liking him, and finally asked him out-and he said yes.  BUT, on their first date, Kaku saw Hiyori in his own clothes for the first time and realized that he has NO fashion sense at all-he was wearing unmatching patterns, acid-washed jeans, etc. etc.  So Hiyori is embarrassed to show him to her friends, and worries more and more about how dorky he looks.  Will Kaku's fashion sensitivity destroy her feelings for Hiyori-kun?
