Mellow, 32-year old Reiko Kujirai has a prickly relationship with the easy-going and often brash 30-year old Hajime Kudou, but they're close enough to get lunch together almost every day. The two bond over their feelings for Kowloon, and they become closer... but there's something strange between the two of them.Something nostalgic.Not all is what it seems in Kowloon...Kowloon Generic Romance is a Seinen romance manga by Jun Mayuzuki.

Alternate History: In the real world, Kowloon Walled City was demolished in 1994 and turned into a park. In the series, the city is still around even in the 20 Minutes into the Future setting. In a flashback, "Kujirai-B" reveals the original Kowloon was in fact demolished in 1994 just like in real life, but it was rebuilt.

Animal Motifs: The "hebi" in Hebinuma is the Japanese word for "snake," and the series makes heavy use of this. Hebinuma Beauty Center uses a cutesy cartoon snake for their mascot. Hebinuma Miyuki himself has very snake-like eyes, sharp teeth, and a habit of licking his lips... as well as a body modification that bifurcates his tongue. In later volumes he's seen wearing things with snakeskin patterns, like his necktie and shoes. In Volume 3 Hebinuma drops by Wong Lo Realty Company to present them with a gift: a painting depicting Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden receiving the fruit of knowledge from a snake. After he kisses Kujirai, she notes that his mouth tasted like an apple. Miyuki is also revealed to have a massive tattoo of a snake that spans most of his back.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })
