Shounen Ga Otona Ni Natta Natsu - 01 -
No huge drama yet. Just a boy (15? 16?) spending the first week of summer break realizing his friends are moving on — one got a summer job, one is studying for exams, one is dating. He feels left behind. Episode ends with him taking a random bus to the coast.
In the opening chapter/episode, Ryuuki and his friends gather at their "secret base" to watch adult videos. While Ryuuki is usually uninterested in such content, he finds himself captivated by a new star named Kirill. Later, while alone in a remote area, Ryuuki is shocked when the real-life Kirill suddenly appears. Finding him watching one of her videos, she decides to engage with him, leading to the series' central theme of his rapid "growth" into an adult over the course of the summer.
