My Dearest Patrolman (Volume 1) Plot


In "My Dearest Patrolman (Volume 1)" Shin's got it bad for Seiji, the hot patrolman who's got everyone in town swooning. But instead of making a move, Shin's been stuck in the friend zone, catching glimpses of Seiji whenever he can. That is until one night, Seiji lets it slip that he’s considering giving guys a try due to his lack of romantic prospects. Talk about a game-changer! Now, Shin's on a mission to win Seiji's heart, and he ain't taking no for an answer.



My Dearest Patrolman Characters


Shin: This dude’s determined and rugged, just like a true biker. He’s been pining for Seiji and finally sees a chance to make his move. Shin's got a heart of gold hidden under all that tough exterior.


Seiji: The patrolman who's got it all—looks, charm, and a touch of vulnerability. Seiji's openness to exploring his romantic options is what sets this whole wild ride into motion.





Why My Dearest Patrolman (Volume 1) is a Gem


When it comes to "My Dearest Patrolman (Volume 1)" Niyama’s characters aren’t your typical pretty boys; they’re real, mature adults dealing with real feelings. Shin and Seiji’s interactions are packed with genuine communication and mutual respect, which is rare in a lot of Yaoi manga. And let’s talk about the humor—"My Dearest Patrolman (Volume 1)" has plenty of silliness to balance out the serious moments. It’s refreshing to see two grown men acting like dorks in love.


Age Gap? No Problem This Time!


There’s a 10-year age difference between Shin and Seiji, with the younger one being 30. This isn’t some weird power dynamic; it’s two adults with life experience finding love and growing together. It’s mature, it’s realistic, and it’s damn beautiful.


What Makes My Dearest Patrolman (Volume 1) Stand Out


  • Realistic Relationships: None of that high school drama—just two men figuring out their feelings.

  • Mature Characters: Adults with depth, dealing with life and love in a way that feels authentic.

  • Humor: Plenty of laugh-out-loud moments to keep things light.

  • Heartfelt Moments: Genuine emotions and sweet interactions that’ll melt your heart.
