Set in an ordinary high school, this story follows Buntarou Houjou, a teenage boy drifting through his days without a clear sense of purpose. Though he has quietly demonstrated a knack for writing scripts in the drama club, he has yet to discover what truly drives him. Everything changes when his classmate Sayuki Kuroda makes a surprising announcement — she is developing a bishoujo game and has her sights set on Buntarou Houjou as a potential collaborator, impressed by the very talent he never thought much of himself. The catch? He knows virtually nothing about the genre she is working in. Caught between unfamiliar territory and an unexpected opportunity, Buntarou Houjou finds himself standing at a crossroads. This series explores themes of creativity, youth, and the search for one's own path through an unconventional creative partnership.
