Haru Kurumiya is a deeply dedicated art student who pours his heart and soul into his craft. He approaches his studies with unwavering seriousness, which often leaves him frustrated by his peers. To him, it is baffling that so many students would waste the rare opportunity of attending an art academy merely to socialize and flirt instead of honing their skills. His rigid worldview is suddenly challenged when he stumbles upon a hidden erotic manga manuscript. To his shock, he discovers that the anonymous creator is none other than Nono Uzuki, a female classmate whom he has long respected for her genuine dedication to fine art. This revelation throws Kurumiya into deep confusion. He harbors a strong disdain for adult comics, firmly believing that anyone who produces such salacious material cannot possibly be considered a true or serious artist. Yet, Uzuki's commitment to her traditional artwork is undeniable. Caught between his strict principles and his admiration for a fellow passionate creator, Kurumiya must grapple with this unexpected contradiction in someone he thought he understood.
