Description
Akira returns to the countryside for high school with a foolproof plan to win the heart of her childhood crush Hajime. Too bad they’re both fools in love… It’s an epic match made in awkwardness!
Highlights of Akira’s carefully orchestrated strategy to court Hajime include covering his eyes with her hands, tricking him into saying her name, and making his heart race… But she might have better luck impressing him with her academic and athletic prowess. Or not. Because he’s too dense to figure out that she likes him, and she’s too dense to figure out he likes her back!
