content
The student Ninako Kinoshita ( 木 下 仁 菜子 ) has never been in love, but when she meets Ren Ichinose ( 一 ノ 瀬 連 ) she falls for him like many other girls of the year. But Ren is not only popular, he also hardly lets any girl get close to her. But Ninako can befriend him, but learns that he is already taken. Still, she doesn't give up on him. Her long-time friend Daiki Korenaga ( 是 永 大樹 ), who in turn fell in love with Ninako and with whom her friends want to couple her, recognizes Ren as a rival. And this one too develops feelings for Ninako, although he initially doesn't want that to be true.
