"Komura starts his school year with a new seat neighbor in homeroom—the bespectacled Mie. Before long, he's nursing a raging crush on his quirky classmate who's always forgetting her glasses! While this might be ideal for Komura to get to know Mie better, will his poor heart give out from the daily strain of being up close and personal with the girl he likes?!"

Shion Wakayama, known for playing Inoue Takina in Lycoris Recoil and Annerose in The Eminence in Shadow, will be voicing Ai Mie. Masahiro Itou, who plays Kyouya Hashiba in Remake Our Life! and Ren Nanahoshi and Argonavis from BanG Dream!, will be taking the role of Kaede Komura.
