The story is about Anzu’s hilarious and decidedly un-heroine-like reactions in her desperate battle to avoid the romantic traps set by Riri and reclaim the hobbies she loves so dearly. Anzu faces Riri’s romantic traps ripped from the pages of a girls’ manga in the form of three hot guys: Tsukasa, the most perfect guy at school; Junta, a sporty childhood friend who loves Anzu; and Hijiri, a hot-and-cold rich guy. Will she be able to evade their charms?!
