When I dressed up as a woman and posted a music video on the internet, I suddenly became famous as a mysterious high school girl net musician (although I'm really a guy). I thought it was okay as long as I didn't show my face, but my high school music teacher, Misao Hanazono, discerned my identity, and I was blackmailed. My high school life—which should have been uneventful—was noisily and annoyingly colored by the three girls I meet through Hanazono-sensei: Rinko, the "twisted genius pianist," Shizuki, the "flower-arrangement princess drummer," and Akane, the "truant zashiki-warashi vocalist."

A boy-meets-girls story, spending all their time in love, youth, and the band!

Status: Releasing
Genres: Comedy , Ecchi , Romance

Opposites attract in this hysterical rom-com about two high school manga artists who can’t catch a break! Dweeby high schooler Uehara Yuuki has created the perfect romantic comedy heroine—she’s bashful, airheaded, and completely chaste. When an editor at Uehara’s dream publisher coldly dismisses his manga story as trite and lacking realism, it sends Uehara into a spiral of despair that pushes him into the path of his bubbly, gorgeous classmate, Miyamoto Niina—an aspiring manga artist herself! Having gotten similar feedback on her own manga, Miyamoto proposes she and Uehara engage in a fake relationship, since neither of them have any romantic experience. But Miyamoto is far from the perfect heroine Uehara’s concocted, and he certainly isn’t the cocky hero from her story either. Can their wacky relationship turn their manga dreams into reality, or will it lead to even more comic disasters?
