I Want to End this Love Game centers on Yukiya Asagi and Miku Sakura, two childhood friends who have grown up sharing practically everything in their lives. Back in sixth grade, they invented a peculiar pastime they call the "love game": each takes turns confessing "I love you" to the other, and whoever blushes or loses their composure first is declared the loser. Years later, now navigating the halls of high school together, the game is still very much alive between them. On the surface, their relationship looks like an endless, lighthearted competition—but beneath all the teasing and laughter, something far more genuine seems to be quietly taking shape. The rules of the game have kept their true emotions carefully guarded for years, yet the line between playing and feeling grows harder to distinguish with every passing day. Can either of them find the courage to step outside the boundaries of the game they created?
