Diary of a Female Lead: Shujinkou Nikki
主人恋〈こう〉日記
Synopsis
Shy girl Aoi learns romance through shoujo manga with brother and cool classmate Sena's help.
Aoi Tsujimura wouldn't consider herself a main character by any means. Meek and insecure, she's constantly alone, unlike her athletic older brother, Itsuki, or her mother, a famous shoujo mangaka. Aoi doesn't need to be the heroine, though—all she wants is a true friend. But Itsuki disagrees, and when he brings home Aoi's effortlessly cool classmate Sena Mizusawa, the two concoct a plan to teach Aoi all about love, using shoujo manga as their guide. Can this drab side character become an unparalleled female lead by falling for the perfect guy? (Source: Seven Seas Entertainment)
