Koi to Yobu ni wa Aosugiru

Koi to Yobu ni wa Aosugiru is a tender girls' love story centered around the quiet connection between an izakaya waitress and an office lady. Kyoko spends her days working at a local izakaya, where she has developed deep feelings for Midori, a regular customer who frequents the establishment. Despite her growing affection, Kyoko keeps her emotions carefully hidden, choosing instead to silently observe the woman she admires from behind the counter. Kyoko’s concern for Midori extends far beyond simple infatuation. She watches with mounting worry as Midori is continually mistreated and pushed around by her unfaithful boyfriend. Though it pains her to see the office lady treated so poorly, Kyoko restrains herself, unwilling to overstep her boundaries or reveal the true nature of her feelings. She remains a quiet guardian on the sidelines, hoping that Midori will eventually recognize her own worth. The fragile balance shatters one evening when Midori’s boyfriend walks into the izakaya accompanied by another woman entirely. This brazen display of betrayal forces the situation to a breaking point, leaving Kyoko to confront her suppressed emotions and decide whether she can continue to stand by in silence while the person she cares about most is hurt.
