It's back-to-school time here at the Manga Test Drive, which in the manga world means attending anything but your ordinary Japanese high school. That's certainly the case with our first review, a visual novel adaptation about a very special (and very gay) school.
GAKUEN HEAVEN, based on the visual novel by SPRAY with art by You Higuri. First published in 2004 and first published in North America in 2006.
PLOT:
Keita Itou is a lucky boy. While he seemingly has no outstanding qualities, he has been accepted to the prestigious boys' school Bell Liberty Academy where every boy has a special talent or quality. Once he gets there, he is welcomed by the very tall, handsome student body (and in particular by the student council president Niwa). Soon enough Keita is swept up in a school scavenger hunt where the winner is granted whatever they want. The competition is fierce, especially once a group of boys use this opportunity to get to Niwa by attacking Keita.
