First year high schooler Junta Shiraishi is a mob character who goes unnoticed even when he's standing right next to you.

Perhaps this story is still two-steps from being a romantic comedy--let's call it a sweet comedy where a background character becomes visible!

-Won 19th place (2020) and 7th place (2021) in the Tsugi ni Kuru Manga Awards in the physical release category.
