Love x Love Game

Kotoha is an entirely unremarkable girl—average looks, ordinary style, poor athletic ability, and mediocre grades. She considers herself below average in every way, especially when compared to her childhood friend, Kanade, who is both handsome and brilliant. Kotoha has secretly harbored romantic feelings for him for years, but Kanade consistently treats her with cold indifference. Desperate to bridge the growing distance between them, she attempts to call him "Kana-chan" just as she did when they were younger, hoping to rekindle their old friendship. Instead of softening, the nickname only provokes his anger, leaving her more heartbroken than before. In the wake of this painful rejection, Kotoha unexpectedly finds herself drawing closer to Haruta, the notorious playboy of her class. As these shifting dynamics force her to navigate complicated emotions and new connections, she must discover where her heart truly belongs. This volume also includes the one-shot stories Aoku, Amaku, Oogata Ken no Koiwazurai, and Hana to Tsubomi.
