A fresh start turns sour after a manga editor's new boss turns out to be his ill-fated first love!

When Ritsu Onodera changes jobs, looking for a fresh start, he's not exactly thrilled when his new boss turns out to be his old flame. Ritsu's determined to leave all that in the past—but how can he when his boss is just as determined that they have a future?

Manga editor Ritsu Onodera already feels like his job at Marukawa Publishing’s Emerald shojo magazine is going to drive him nuts, but then his boss—and first love!—Masamune Takano assigns him special "homework." On top of that, he begins working with a brand-new manga creator making her debut, but she’s disappointed when she finds out Takano won’t be her editor!

Meanwhile, Ritsu extracts a promise from Takano for no kissing and no sex until he properly confesses. Takano (barely) keeps it, but with his relentless teasing, how long will Ritsu be able to hold back his own sexual frustration?

The World's Greatest First Love, Vol. 17 by Shungiku Nakamura explores these complex emotions and enticing workplace drama, blending romantic entanglements with the challenges of the manga-editing world.
