Book Description:
Shuichi Shindou is determined to be a rock star. He has no experience, no talent, and no band. After finding a charismatic guitarist and getting a gig, he's ready to show the world what a genius he is with his powerful lyrics. However, Eiri Yuki overhears his amateurish verse and puts the young musician in his place. Unable to get the harsh criticism out of his mind Shuichi forces himself into Yuki's life and the two find their futures inexorably intertwined. The force that brings them together is like gravity and there is nothing they can do to stop it.

A fun Rock n Roll Romance Comedy. A classic Shounen-ai/Boys Love/Yaoi story, this is a good introduction to this genre; it is not explicit. Lots of angst, both characters are vividly portrayed and the story moves along well. Although the plot doesn't advance quickly, you still want to share Shuichi and Eiri's adventures. The artwork is fun, with many quirky chibi/super-deformed "cute" pictures of silly Shuichi although this author does have a tendency to draw some of the lesser characters very similarly to main characters, which is confusing. This is the first volume in the series.

One of the early "shonen ai" series to breach the mainstream, GRAVITATION follows a young singer, Shuichi, in his entanglements of career, family, and romance.
