Summary:Â Even a dream job can start to feel like just a job, and as the daily grind of adulthood wears him down, Asahi begins to crave something new to bring some excitement back into his life. When Nishinoya mentions that his next stop in Europe is Paris, one of the fashion capitals of the world, Asahi decides to take a risk and ask if he can join in on his travels.
The trip turns out to be exactly what he needs, and being around Nishinoya reawakens a zest for life and adventure that Asahi hasn’t felt in a long time. But a trip to the City of Love with his high school crush reawakens something else in Asahi. Maybe this time, he’ll have the courage to see things through.
