List of Other Media

This is a list of other media that does not have enough information to warrant its own page. It includes bonus comics, amongst other things.

In the case a revised version of the Sotsugyou Album is released and comics listed here are included, they will be moved to the page Sotsugyou Album.

## "A Few Centimeters"

Set directly after chapter 1 of Doukyuusei, Hikaru and Rihito go to collect their bags and walk home, only to find that they end up walking the same way. They walk together, stealing small glances at each other and getting embarrassed when their eyes meet. When they get to the point where their paths diverge, Hikaru asks Rihito if he was surprised when they kissed. Rihito says he's surprised even now. Hikaru expresses that he wants to stay for a while longer, and Rihito agrees, as they sit in comfortable silence. Rihito gets a message from his mother asking where he is, and Hikaru says they should go home, but not before leaning in to kiss Rihito. Hikaru again asks if he's surprised, and Rihito blushes and nods. They part ways, with a monologue saying the few centimeters that were previously between them have now disappeared.

This comic was originally included with the Japanese DVD release of the Doukyuusei film in 2016.

## "Preparation"

Hikaru sneaks into his sister's bedroom in hopes of finding her BL doujinshi to research in order to learn more about anal sex. He successfully finds them under her bed, and notes how broad her taste is. He eventually picks up one with a bespectacled boy on the cover and reads it, but is surprised at what he sees. He notes that the knowledge he gained from the book wasn't of use, and his sister eventually finds out what he did, punishing him.

This comic was originally included with the Japanese Blu-Ray release of the Doukyuusei film in 2016.

## "Night Coffee"

A sleeping Hikaru waits in their usual cafe for Rihito finish with cram school. Despite only wanting to pretend he was asleep, he fell asleep for real. Rihito sees Hikaru take out his earbuds, and asks what he was listening to, which causes Hikaru to hesitate. Rihito works out he was listening to a song Hikaru himself wrote, and eagerly asks to listen to it once he finds out it's a demo track that Hikaru sings in. Hikaru is considerably nervous and embarrassed about this, but lets him listen upon Rihito's insistence. Hikaru blushes, waiting for his reaction, and Rihito smiles fondly upon hearing his singing voice.

This comic was originally part of an anthology called "In The Cafe", a compilation of comics by various OPERA authors sold at the OPERA Cafe in 2018.

## "During a Date"

Rihito meets up with Hikaru in Tokyo while in their long distance relationship. They go out to the movies and then have dinner at Hikaru's apartment. Without the other knowing, Rihito and Hikaru created situations that would get the other to fall asleep (Hikaru falling asleep during movies, Rihito becoming sleepy from drinking wine) in order to secretly measure each others' ring sizes in preparation for their marriage proposals. The last page has a small flash forward into the future where they propose at the same time, referencing the comic Happy Ending.

This comic was originally included as a bonus booklet given out at showings of the Doukyuusei film in 2016. It was also eventually included in the "Rings" booklet as part of the limited edition release of Blanc vol.1, along with "Gold Ring + Silver Ring" and "Happy Ending".

## "Gold Ring + Silver Ring"

In Gold Ring, Rihito asks Miyamura to help him in buying an engagement ring for Hikaru. He ends up choosing a set of gold rings, the reasoning being Hikaru's hair is also gold. In Silver Ring, Hikaru is seen shopping for an engagement ring for Rihito, looking for a ring for a "simple and sturdy" person. A saleswoman assists him, and shows him a pair of matte silver rings with a small diamond on the inside. Hikaru expresses it's perfect, and explains he's buying it for another man upon the mention of his lover's ring size being bigger than usual. Hikaru suggests getting two men's sized rings from different sets, but the saleswoman insists that he gets a set custom-made, as it would make it more meaningful for the two of them. Hikaru smiles at this thought and agrees.

This comic was originally included with the 2017 Daily Calendar available at the Animate Girls Festival. It was also eventually included in the "Rings" booklet as part of the limited edition release of Blanc vol.1, along with "During a Date" and "Happy Ending".

## "Before The Wedding" - Blanc #2 Bonus Booklet

Divided into two comics, "2:00 AM". & "2:00 PM." Set briefly after their reconciliation in chapter 9 of blanc, the couple are laying in Hikaru's bed together, planning the rest of their day. They start to discuss how to hold their wedding, when Hikaru briefly tries to initiate a fourth round of sexual intercourse, due to them not needing to leave the house until 2:00 pm. Rihito becomes embarrassed and states that since they've had three rounds that day, he doesn't think he can handle more, causing Hikaru to *also* become embarrassed and agree with him. Rihito states his idea to have a civil ceremony, mentioning the concept of having their friends and family gathered around to be their witnesses. Hikaru agrees that it's a good idea, and asks if he's been thinking about this for long. Rihito replies that he only ever started thinking about it since "being together with [Hikaru] like this." Rihito then starts kissing down Hikaru's body, prompting surprise from Hikaru, bringing up Rihito's statement from before. Rihito says he will be fine if they take it slow, and Hikaru becomes moved and states his love for Rihito.

Later, the two stop to rest in the cafe they used to visit after their suit fitting appointment with Komatsu. Both exhausted, they talk about their day, and Rihito mentions that he's grateful for Hara's help in introducing them to Komatsu, as they now have someone to make their suits and their cake (Komatsu presumably having introduced them to Hibiki). Hikaru seems uncomfortable at the mention of Hara, and changes the subject to Sorano when Rihito brings it up. They both talk about how they only met him briefly in the past, and Hikaru brings up Sorano asking his permission to let Rihito and Hara go out for the day in Sora to Hara. Rihito appears to have forgotten about this until now, while Hikaru sheepishly asks to clarify that nothing really happened. Rihito confirms there's no way, and Hikaru agrees, saying he trusts him, but still seeming uncomfortable while trying to change the subject. Rihito clarifies it's not a problem, stating "I'm all yours" to Hikaru. Hikaru remembers when Rihito said only half of himself belongs to Hikaru in Sotsugyousei, and Rihito seems to have forgotten, remarking that Hikaru has a good memory. Rihito states that he does not need to hold himself back anymore, and that he's giving all of himself to Hikaru, and that he's taking all of Hikaru for himself too. Hikaru blushes, and responds with "please, have all of me", as they hold hands and Rihito chuckles.

## "On the eve of"

Set on the morning of their wedding, Kusakabe notices that Sajou is awake at 3:00 and asks if he's not able to sleep, as it's their wedding that day. Kusakabe suggests Sajou count sheep (hitsuji) and starts counting them. Sajou interrupts that it doesn't work as well in Japanese as it does in English, since the word "sheep" can be said easily while breathing from the diaphragm compared to "hitsuji." Kusakabe wonders if other words that start with "sh" would work, and starts listing some off, before ending on "shuki" ("I wuv you"), making Sajou embarrassed.

This comic was originally included in "Kono BL ga Yabai! 2022 Edition" to celebrate blanc winning first place in the rankings.
