Abstract

Sakakibara Satori, a high school student who was the ace of the kendo club, a sociable guy, and the center of attention in his class, finds himself in a difficult situation.
Promoted to second year, he finds himself separated from all his close friends. To make matters worse, there's morning club practice on the first day of the new semester, so by the time he arrives at class, the group is already formed.
"I was trained to be sociable, but in reality I'm shy and have trouble talking to people...!!"

Feeling left out, Satori keeps to himself in the classroom, until he's approached by Shikimi Gaku, a quiet young man he rarely sees around school, sitting behind him.
At first, Satori is surprised by Gaku's quiet yet mysterious presence, a stark contrast to his previous friendships. But Gaku sees through the introverted nature he's been hiding behind his charm, and as he continues to act all unpretentious in front of him, feelings he's never felt before begin to grow. But Gaku is hiding a secret from Satori...

A clumsy first love coming-of-age love story about high school students chasing their dreams!
