action
The focus of the plot is the kindergarten teacher Naozumi Tsuchida, who begins his work in the Hanamaru kindergarten in the first chapters . Like the parents of the children, he has to come to terms with being in a special situation. After all, it is considered unusual for a man to slip into the role of a supervisor in a kindergarten. He also has various problems with the girl Anzu, who falls in love with him and - encouraged by her mother and at the same time Tsuchida's former classmate Sakura - has put it into her head that the two will become a couple. However, he is in love with the kindergarten teacher from the neighboring class, Nanako Yamamato. In kindergarten, Anzu also meets the very shy Koume and the eccentric Hiiragi, who become good friends. Together, all three try to bring Anzu together with Naozumi, which is doomed to fail due to the situation and the naive ideas of Anzu. Naozumi also repeatedly fails to confess his love to Nanako. The reason for this is mainly the inability of Nanako, as well as her sister, to recognize the affection of other people for them.
