As Mashuu and Satoko steadily wade into the deeper waters of their relationship, they create ripples that touch the lives of their family and friends. They’ve finally come into something that is comfortable yet nameless, but their bond has yet to come into full form. To do that, they will have to ask questions and examine what their connection—and their future—really mean to each other, but more than anything, they will have to know themselves.

Where will their discoveries take them as the story of Mashuu and Satoko come to an end? Find out in the final volume of My Boy.
