Synopsis
Fifth-grade love comedy: Ryouta's accidental pervert moments and innocent romance in random elementary school anecdotes.
Ryouta plays it cool around all of his classmates, especially when it comes to girls. But he's always the one on the spot in a perverted situation. In some of these many random anecdotes about the lives of fifth graders you'll find: peeping at collarbones, eating chalk, accidental skirt flipping, missing bloomers, and many others... Who says grade school can't have a high-school-type love story? (Source: MU)
