OP: “Summertime Ghost (サマータイムゴースト)” by Suiyoubi no Campanella (水曜日のカンパネラ) Kowloon Generic Romance isn’t sneaking up on anybody. It has a big-name mangaka in Mayuzuki Jun. It has a reputation.

Classic?Stars #01 — My Special Eyes
At least the episode did indeed get weird. Impressions: I was fully prepared to just post “Yep, another one of these” and move on, but then things took a bit of a turn. See, Red here only cares about boxing, and is only here because… he wants a magic fix for an eye injury. Which …
