Episode 1 Synopsis

In his college junior year, Shinichi Sakurai is reunited with his kouhai (junior), Uzaki Hana.

Uzaki has previously observed Shinichi going through his school life like a loner and wants to make his life more enjoyable.

They both go to hang out together, and Uzaki bothers Shinichi through the entire day.

Shinichi accidentally grabs Uzaki’s chest while playing a VR game. After that, Uzaki voraciously eats food at a restaurant while Shinichi has to keep ordering more.

Quick Review

The anime aims to be unique but miserably fails at being so. The characters have nothing refreshing about them.

Uzaki’s assets are unnecessarily paid attention to throughout the anime. Apart from that, the way Uzaki pursues Shinichi is quite annoying.

A proper background of Shinichi and Uzaki isn’t shown. Although the anime has its cute moments, the story is too simple. The animation itself is neither bad nor good.
