Necktie and Praying Mantis
ネクタイとカマキリ
Nekutai to Kamakiri
A hardworking salaryman, Seiichi Natsuki has one weakness: he is scared of bugs. After work colleague Shun Tokita rescues him from one pesky praying mantis, Natsuki falls for Tokita and confesses to him. Tokita, though not initially attracted to men, accepts Natsuki's feelings and deepens their relationship. But, when Natsuki faces pressure to have a family and marry, Natsuki realizes he might fear more than just insects... This collection of short stories also includes "Firework of Daisies," "A Normal Life," "Those Who Sin Against Us," and other touching stories by Ayu Yamane!

Read Free
We allow users to preview titles in our library by making the first chapter — or even beyond, for selected titles — available for free. Through free previews, you can get a feel of not only what a title is like, but also whether Manga Planet’s line-up is for you.
Read with Points
The individual-purchase model is recommended for users looking only for specific titles. For a reasonable price, you can digitally rent chapters or volumes for a specific period of time, or digitally purchase to access them for an unrestricted period of time.
Read with the Manga Planet Pass
The Manga Planet Pass is a cost-effective, value-added way to enjoy our diverse catalog of titles. Choose from five plans according to your budget and lifestyle: 1 Week, 1 Month, 3 Months, 6 Months, and 12 Months. For a fixed fee for your chosen duration, you can read as many titles (that are covered by the Pass) as you like within the Pass’s validity period.
