Synopsis:

Yuu Koito has long idealized romance, finding solace in stories of love she can’t seem to embody. The expected declaration of affection during her graduation leaves her feeling strangely empty, highlighting a fundamental disconnect between understanding and experiencing romantic emotion. Entering high school, Yuu grapples with this realization, seeking answers amidst the unfamiliar social landscape. She encounters Touko Nanami, the composed student council president, who herself deflects a confession with quiet grace. Drawn to Touko's composure, Yuu seeks guidance, only for Touko to unexpectedly confess feelings of her own. This unconventional encounter thrusts Yuu into an intricate relationship, prompting a journey of self-discovery as she navigates the complexities of affection and attempts to unravel the mystery of genuine emotion. The series explores themes of emotional connection, identity formation, and the nuances of interpersonal relationships within a contemporary high school setting.
