Â
Heat x Beat is a sizzling omegaverse Boys Love series from the creative duo Ken Homerun (sisters Makoto Minami and Norikazu Akira) that combines the glitter of idol stardom with the primal heat of alpha/omega dynamics. Published under TOKYOPOP's LoveLove imprint, this 18+ series delivers passion, drama, and enough chemistry to melt the stage.
Â
In a world where biology determines destiny, being an omega in the entertainment industry is nearly impossible. But Asahi has dreamed of becoming an idol his entire life, and when he's chosen to join the popular boy band B-Marks, nothing—not even his omega status—will stand in his way. As he navigates the pressures of debut, the intensity of performance, and the complications of working alongside alpha bandmates, Asahi discovers that the spotlight comes with heat he never anticipated.
Â
Volume 2 shifts focus to Minoru, a shut-in omega whose heart was shattered when his betrothed alpha abandoned him. Pouring his pain into music, Minoru catches the attention of famous idol Hijiri, who pulls him from isolation and into the world of stardom. Now performing alongside alpha bandmates Eiji and Tatsuya, Minoru finds himself drawn to the frank and affectionate Eiji—unaware that Eiji harbors a secret tied to Minoru's painful past.
Â
Ken Homerun crafts a series that embraces the full intensity of omegaverse storytelling: pheromones, mating bonds, and the push-pull of desire and duty. But beneath the heat lies genuine emotional depth—stories of healing, self-acceptance, and finding where you belong.
