Summary

Ai Ore!, Vol. 7 by Mayu Shinjo tells the story of Mizuki, a female "prince" at an all-girls school and lead guitarist of an all-girl rock band, and Akira, a male "princess" from an all-boys school wanting to join her band. The manga explores their romantic entanglements complicated by their gender-bending appearances—Mizuki looks like a boy, Akira looks like a girl.

In this volume, Akira faces a dilemma as his talent agency prioritises idol creation over music authenticity, contrasting with Mizuki’s reluctance to compromise for Blaue Rosen's major label debut. When Akira decides to go solo, he must confront the challenges of living the life of a female idol.

Description

The boy (who looks like a girl) meets girl (who looks like a boy) romance!

Mizuki is the female "prince" of her all-girls school and the lead guitarist in an all-girl rock band. Akira is the male "princess" of his all-boys school and wants to join her band. Love may be on his mind, but romance is difficult when everyone keeps mistaking Mizuki for a boy and Akira for a girl!

Akira’s agency cares more about creating idols than music, and Mizuki is reluctant to agree to their terms for Blaue Rosen debuting with a major record label. Akira then decides to go solo, but is he ready to live the life of a female idol?
