Summary for Ep 1

Spoiler:

Misaki walked in through the door and found Usagi being VERY CLOSE with his brother, Takahiro. It turns out in hopes to boost Misaki's grades up, Usagi became Misaki's tutor. The next day, he entered Usagi's apartment and was amazed by the sheer size of it. He then noticed a stack of books (:P ) finds out Usagi's a novelist and saw the scandalous yaoi picture on the cover. He deducted from the steamy lines that Usagi was actually writing about himself and Takahiro and pissed, he barged into the bedroom, causing Usagi to wake up moodily. Misaki threw a fit and demanded that Usagi stop taking advantage of his brother and lets loose a string of insults. Pissed off, Usagi told him he knows nothing about his side of the story and threw him on bed and wanks him off. (This, I don't get, does Usagi do this just to get even or just to savor Misaki's humiliation?)

Anyway, after that, they were talking about his results and university of his choice. Misaki said he wanted to enrol in M University to make his brother happy, as their parents had died ten years ago and his brother had taken care of him ever since. Misaki gradually improves with Usagi's help, who said he wanted to see Misaki pass because it would make Takahiro happy. They then talked about Usagi's one-sided love for Misaki's brother. Usagi assured Misaki that Takahiro knows nothing about his feelings and the content in the story was entirely made up by him. Misaki asked why Usagi won't tell him, and Usagi replied that he doesn't want to risk anything that could make Takahiro hate him, so he's content staying by his side as his best friend.

Fast forward to the day when Misaki passed with flying colors. Misaki and Usagi met up, and a comfortable banter ensued after Misaki shows him his results. It turns out that today was Takahiro's birthday, so they ended up throwing a surprise birthday party for Takahiro. Here, Takahiro had brought in with him a woman, his fiancee to be exact. Takahiro mentioned that he wanted Usagi to be the first to meet her. Usagi was clearly shaken but he congratulated them as if everything was normal. Seeing this, Misaki slammed his fist against the wall.

Misaki lied by saying he wanted to buy champagne and grabbed Usagi's hand and rushed out. Outside, Misaki started to cry and said he's sorry. Usagi doesn't know why until Misaki explained that his brother was really insensitive, Usagi had cared for him so much and said Takahiro was completely crazy for rubbing it in Usagi's face like that (even if he doesn't know.) Misaki said it's the first time he ever wanted to hit his brother. Usagi watched Misaki continue crying and then kissed him, shocking Misaki enough to make him stop crying. After that, a heartbroken Usagi leans on his shoulder and Misaki responded by saying it's okay to cry. Usagi chided him for it, and said that he has never cried in front of anybody. The scene ends with Misaki's narration about his feelings.

The next day, Misaki was up and ready for his first day in university. Usagi then comes and rumpled his hair. xD The episode ended with Misaki screaming," IDIOT USAGI!!!" as Usagi continued doing things at his own pace. xD

I'm sorry, I'm a summary fanatic.

Faithful adaptation? Check like wow. It practically followed every manga panel. :P Animation was bleh average, what do you expect from Studio Deen? It was dialogue-heavy as expected, and overall, I give it a B+, not bad at all for a BL anime.
