Synopsis
All-girls-school girl Kanoko enters co-ed life, discovering first love with equally clueless, eccentric boy Yuito.
For Kanoko Mikeda, dating and a love life had always remained out of reach. Having only attended all-girls schools, she has always wondered about the everlasting mystery behind boys. Hoping to finally leave innocence behind, she decides to enroll in a co-ed high school. Amongst the sea of new faces, one boy draws Kanoko's attention. Reserved and aloof, Yuito Tamako's eccentric personality initially puts Kanoko off. But she soon discovers a charming and good-natured side to him: he is as inexperienced in love as she is. As Kanoko's experience comes solely from fantasies and romance shows, she now faces a different challenge when approached with real feelings for the first time.Included one-shot: Volume 5: Yamenaide, Kirara-kun
