Ever Green

Yoshimatsu Hotaka serves as the president of the manga club and maintains a diligent approach to both his studies and extracurricular activities. Despite appearing to be a model honor student, he carries a distinct air of heavy melancholy that sets him apart. His gaze is almost constantly fixed on Awaya Nika, the radiant and exceptionally cheerful ace of the girls' swimming club, creating a stark contrast between his bitter demeanor and her bright presence. The reason behind Hotaka’s somber attitude remains a mystery, but his routine is disrupted when his physical education teacher mandates that he attend at least one private swimming lesson. This secret session, conducted away from prying eyes, forces him to confront an activity he typically avoids due to personal circumstances, raising questions about how this unexpected requirement will affect him.
