Starlike Words

Subaru is a high school student who navigates his youth with a carefree and openly promiscuous attitude. While he never turns down the opportunity for casual physical intimacy, he draws a firm line when it comes to romance. For him, dating without genuine affection is entirely out of the question, as he refuses to commit to anyone unless true love is involved. He moves through his daily school life without any expectation that this steadfast personal rule might soon be challenged. Everything shifts unexpectedly when Subaru stumbles upon a breathtaking painting displayed within the school. Captivated by the artwork's beauty, he experiences an overwhelming realization: he has finally fallen in love for the very first time. However, his affections are directed not at a person he has met face-to-face, but at the mysterious artist responsible for creating the masterpiece. Determined to pursue this newfound emotion, Subaru sets out to win the heart of the unknown painter. Yet, the path to genuine romance proves far more complicated than he anticipated. His well-known reputation for casual flings stands in stark contrast to his sincere feelings, making the task of earning his love interest's trust an incredibly difficult challenge.
