Synopsis
Plushie-maker Ikumi curses admired senpai into a stuffed toy; must make her happy to break spell.
The senpai she admires is cursed to become a plushy...!? Ikumi is a high school girl whose hobby is making plushies. She presents a handmade plushy as a thank-you to Ayato-senpai, the popular student council president, but she is shocked to witness him tossing it away behind her back. That's when the "curse" of the stuffed animal's spirit deity is activated, and Ayato-senpai himself becomes a plushy...? The only way to break the curse is to make Ikumi happy! It's the start of their plushy life♪ (Source: Hakusensha, translated) Included one-shot: Volume 1: Nui ni Koishite Ii desu ka? (pilot)
