Synopsis:

The story follows Junta Shiraishi, a high school student striving for a carefree adolescence, hampered by his remarkable lack of visibility. Often overlooked by classmates and educators alike, rumors circulate about good fortune for those who can truly see him. Nagisa Kubo, however, consistently acknowledges Shiraishi's existence, positioning himself as the only one who perceives the protagonist.

Kubo’s interactions with Shiraishi are often unconventional, leading to unusual circumstances that pull the reluctant youth from his passive existence. The series explores themes of perception, connection, and the desire for personal significance within a seemingly indifferent world. It presents a nuanced look at finding agency and embracing the unexpected through playful, yet sometimes challenging, interactions. The narrative unfolds with a quiet charm, emphasizing character dynamics over grand spectacle.
