Gekijou Komoriuta

Kogure is an ordinary high school girl whose days are happily consumed by two great passions: devouring shoujo manga and enjoying good food. Like many readers of her favorite romance comics, she harbors a deep desire to experience a genuine love story of her own. However, there is one significant obstacle standing between her and the romantic life she dreams of—she suffers from an overwhelming fear of real-life boys. While fictional characters on the page offer comfort and excitement, actual young men leave her completely paralyzed with anxiety. This stark contrast between her romantic fantasies and her paralyzing phobia makes the prospect of falling in love seem like an impossible challenge. She can easily swoon over the idealized protagonists in her manga, but navigating real-world interactions feels entirely out of reach. Her everyday life is defined by this quiet struggle, caught between what she desperately wants and what terrifies her most. Everything shifts unexpectedly when Kogure suddenly crosses paths with a young man who perfectly embodies every trait she has ever admired in her beloved stories. He is not a drawing on a page or a distant fantasy; he is standing right in front of her, entirely real. Now, she must confront her deepest fears and discover whether the courage to embrace a genuine connection can finally outweigh her long-standing terror.
