Book by Maki Murakami, Jamie S. Rich

Shuichi returns to Japan and to his surprise, Eiri has come to greet him at the airport. Shuichi reveals that he just wants Eiri to open up to him. Hearing this, Eiri offers to say "I love you"...if Shuichi agrees to pay him every time he says it. Although Eiri is joking, Shuichi is dead serious about raising the money to hear those precious words. However, Eiri says something else that will leave Shuichi so shocked he will be unable to sing!

When the plans to release five singles in three weeks turn into releasing ten singles in ten weeks, it's up to Shuichi to get into the groove before the pressure leads him on a road to nowhere. Talk about working hard for the money! With all eyes on Shuichi and everyone tuning in to hear Bad Luck's latest recording, will this band become the old kids on the block?

This final volume of the hit shonen-ai musical comedy is bicoastal to the max! Bad Luck tries to crash Nittle Grasper's gig, but the song Shuichi had planned to sing isn't finished. Can Shuichi steal the thunder from Ryuichi, or has Bad Luck finally missed a beat? Gravitation's swan song spans the glam and glitter of Hollywood to the rock-steady streets of the Big Apple--an old ghost is put to rest, and a new relationship just might be blossoming!
