Junjou Romantica Act 41[]

Misaki Takahashi is not making any progress on his thesis and nearly bites Akihiko Usami's head off for bothering him. Misaki laments over the fact that what he really needs is a quiet environment with no distractions. Usagi cheers Misaki up with wine and they drink until Misaki passes out and then Usagi makes a phone call. Misaki wakes up in the Usami home and while he was upset over Usagi's underhanded scheme, he reluctantly agrees that it is the ideal environment. Usagi leaves to take a walk and comes face to face with Haruhiko Usami who wants to talk to him about Misaki. At the same time, Misaki sees the brothers while he's taking a break and decides to eavesdrop. Haruhiko explains that their father wants Usagi to take over the family business, which may cause him to be pulled apart from Misaki. Usagi says that he does not want to be the successor and their father wanted Haruhiko to take that position instead. Usagi thought back to when he was ten and he met his older brother for the first time. He quickly learned that Haruhiko was the intended heir and no matter how well Usagi did his parents were left unimpressed. All alone, he turned to the only world that existed to him, which was inside his notebook. Back in the present, Haruhiko explains that he felt that he had to be dutiful to the family that took him in, but it was Misaki who inspired him to pursue his personal goals too. He is indebted to Misaki and on his side. The brothers were surprised to find Misaki with Alexander after they finished talking. Haruhiko wishes him happiness and leaves. Usagi told Misaki that he used to envy Haruhiko, which contributed to the friction but he can tolerate him now that he has Misaki. Usagi is somewhat annoyed that so many people like Misaki and tells him that he must be his forever. They have sex and Misaki wonders how long Usagi was alone considering how young he started writing and that he is very happy now that Usagi is less lonely with him.

A few days later Misaki is at school and pleased with his progress on the thesis. Haruhiko runs into him for work purposes. They go to eat and Usagi, who came to pick up Misaki, is highly annoyed to see the two together.

Junjou Romantica Act 42[]

Misaki finds himself at Kuma Park with Usagi, his sister-in-law Manami Kajwara and nephew Mahiro Takahashi because Takahiro Takahashi had to go into work at the last minute and Mahiro cried about seeing the bears rather than wait for his father. Usagi invites himself. At the park, Misaki warns him not to buy all the balloons again so Usagi buys a bear hat for Misaki to wear, which ticks him off even more. Manami laughs over the way Misaki does as Usagi says and Misaki's unlimited stories of Usagi being annoying. She notices that although he complains, he seems really happy when he talks about Usagi. At the restaurant while Usagi is buying food, Manami brings up the subject of Misaki moving close to them and his unresponsiveness makes her question whether something is stopping him. Misaki tries to cover up by saying Usagi would die if he wasn't around to take care of things and Usagi was slightly annoyed when he overheard this. Still, after Misaki left to get a cola, Usagi admits to Manami that he might be in trouble since although it is said you don't realize how precious something is after you lose it, there are times when you realize that something is precious before you lose it. After Misaki returns Manami asks him if he ever came to Kuma Park with his girlfriend which makes Misaki highly mortified and Usagi teases him about how he wouldn't be a reliable boyfriend. Manami laughs over how close they are and the two men share a knowing look which throws her off. When Misaki brushes off the moment, Usagi is a bit sad. Mahiro wanted their picture taken so Misaki asks the closest person who ends up being Nowaki Kusama accompanied by Hiroki Kamijou. Misaki was equally as shocked to see Kamijou-sensei as Hiroki was shocked to see Akihiko. After Nowaki takes the picture, Hiroki turns to leave until he recognizes Misaki. Hiroki asks if he could speak to Misaki privately to try to figure out if Misaki is going out with his friend or if they're just roommates. Ultimately he said that while Usagi is difficult and can't really fend for himself, he is still a good guy so Hiroki is counting on Misaki. The evening ended with a parade and Usagi admitted that if it wasn't for Hiroki he wouldn't have pursued writing as a profession. When Misaki starts to justify his own role in Usagi's life by rattling off chores, Usagi sets him straight by stating that he couldn't go on living without him. He holds Misaki's hand and doesn't let go. Usagi also said that Hiroki trusts Misaki to care for him and that as long as Misaki is with him, his world is sparkling. That night they have sex and Misaki thinks about how Usagi was in a very good mood because of the day's events. And although he would never admit it, Misaki realizes that if he is with Usagi his world will certainly always sparkle.

The next day Manami calls to thank Misaki and he hears Takahiro crying in the background because he has to work on the same day he promised Mahiro to go to the aquarium. Takahiro asks if Usagi can come too and before he could say no, Usagi agrees regardless of his deadline.

Junjou Romantica Act 42.5[]

Misaki receives a cute picture of Mahiro in a bear costume but gets mad when Usagi tries to get him to wear an adult-sized bear costume too. Misaki notes the amount of souvenirs they bought at Kuma Park and wonders if he actually had fun or not. He thinks about why he didn't stop Usagi from overspending until he remembers complaining to Manami about it and being taken back after she makes a comment about how adults unknowingly fulfill their dreams that didn't come true when they were children. Misaki becomes concerned and asks Usagi if he had fun. Usagi said he would have more fun if Misaki wears the bear costume and despite his resistance and struggle, Misaki thinks about if he continues to do things that are fun with Usagi then he would be happy.
