Meiji Karisomemeoto wa Ryoukatakoi

Yae is a formidable martial artist who manages her own dojo, possessing physical strength that rivals anyone she encounters. Her unmatched prowess in combat, however, has cast a long shadow over her personal life. As time passes, the prospect of finding a suitable husband seems increasingly unlikely, leaving her to wonder if she will spend her days devoted solely to the discipline of the sword rather than the comforts of romance. Her solitary path takes an unexpected turn when she crosses paths with Kazusa, the strikingly handsome proprietor of a local kimono shop. Recognizing something valuable in Yae's commanding presence, he approaches her with a highly unusual proposition. Rather than offering courtship, Kazusa asks her to step into a temporary role: acting as his pretend wife. This surprising arrangement thrusts Yae out of the familiar confines of her training hall and into a complicated charade. Bound by a contract built on deception, the powerful dojo master and the elegant merchant must navigate the delicate illusion of their fabricated marriage. What begins as a simple business agreement soon threatens to blur the lines between performance and genuine affection, forcing both to confront feelings they never anticipated.
