15-year-old Kaho falls for her savior, only to discover he's a fifth-grade elementary schoolboy.
When fifteen-year-old Kaho Nikaidou leaves her sheltered home to start life anew in Tokyo, the last thing she expects is to nearly get hit by a truck!

The handsome object of Kaho's affection agrees to go out with her, but her newfound bliss is short lived when it turns out that her new boyfriend... is a fifth grader?! (Source: Yen Press)
