content
In a world where almost all children and young people have a supernatural ability, Toru Mizushima ( 水 島 透 ) is one of the few without a special gift. While the others can see into the future, the past or otherwise extraordinary with their Iris ability, the Iris Zero Toru is worried about being bullied by the others. That's why he tries to be as inconspicuous as possible and to have such a peaceful everyday school life. He only has close contact with his childhood friend Hijiri Shinozuka ( 篠 塚 聖 ). But one day, Koyuki Sasamori ( 佐 々 森 小雪 ) comes up to him, a pretty and popular girl. She is looking for a new student representative, but despite her iris she can not find one. Toru is supposed to help her with his impartiality as Iris Zero. But Koyuki's closeness brings him the attention he tries to avoid, and soon his problems with other students begin.
Although Toru actually wants to stay away from Koyuki, Koyuki does not give up. And Toru has to come to her aid when she is threatened by other students. Koyuki's friend Asahi Yuki ( 結 城 あ さ ひ ) also declines close contact with Toru, but soon becomes another reason that Toru is asked for help when she is expelled from school for misconduct. Koyuki recognizes that it is Toru's strength that he does not rely on an iris, and so she keeps asking him for advice.
