OH my gawsh!!! i absolutly fell in love witht his mang! its aout twins, Siva and Cipher, and these twins are so close a paper wont fit in between them, until Anise comes.

I was introduced to this title by a friend when I was in high school (eons ago before English translations were widely availability in the U.S.). This title was very popular in Taiwan.

I started reading this manga in 2021 and I don't know what I saw in it to be honest. Don't get me wrong the art is pretty and the plot was pretty interesting.

I think the brothers were the downfall and the romance was
