Synopsis

A drama story about Natsuka, his best friend and his sex friend. Natsuka has been in love with his best friend, Hakushima, for four years without any gain. Though not wanting to stain his best friend and their friendship he never confesses. To divert his feelings from Hakushima, Natsuka embraces his sex friend, Seno, as a substitute. One day, Seno ends up running over Hakushima while on his motorcycle and this leaves Hakushima unconscious. Later, Seno wakes up saying "I am Hakushima." Natsuka comes up with the idea of embracing his sex friend who now has Hakushima's soul inside.

*Non-Spoiler Review*

This story felt unique even though it has many troupes in it, with a hint of a psychological theme. The concept of consciousness swapping is done quite well in this manga and pulled me in thoroughly. This is an erotica, so there is a lot of sexual content present, but it never overpowers the story. The progression of the story also felt natural and there weren't too many issues I had with it.

Kakkou no Yume felt like a piece that was devoted to the struggle of how to be true to yourself (with added nudity that I absolutely enjoyed).
