Hanabi has loved her older friend Narumi for years, but she’s still in high school and not only is Narumi now her new homeroom teacher, he’s also clearly in love with the music teacher, Akane. And as awkward as being the unwanted third in a romantic triangle can be, things become even more twisted for Hanabi when she learns that another student, Mugi, is in love with Akane. That leads to a strange idea: since the ones that Mugi and Hanabi are in love with aren’t available, the two unrequited thirds start to explore the idea of becoming each other’s substitute surrogate relationship. It’s not about romance, of course. Just sex and convenience.

What if you could control reality with a mouse cursor?

One day during class, Takumi— an otaku — notices his mouse cursor has sprung out of the screen.

Panicked, he asks his childhood friend Mone, sitting next to him, to take a look, only to be brushed off...

Once Takumi realizes he could actually control it himself, he uses the mouse cursor— visible only to him— to slip it in between Mone's clothes and starts clicking away...

Here's Japan’s (probably) first new genre of romcom, "Clicking Away at a Gyaru Who's Mean to Otakus with a Mouse Cursor"!
