MOCHIZAKI Yuba

There are two kinds of people in this world: the popular extroverts and the gloomy introverts. If you want to make the most of your limited youth, there’s only one path you should choose. In other words, if you want to be popular, become an extrovert. Kyota Ueda, once a former introvert, reinvented himself through sheer effort and determination when he entered high school. Now, surrounded by popular kids, his school life is going smoothly. All that's left is to get himself a gyaru girlfriend and everything will be perfect, yet for some reason, the romantic flags keep popping up only with introverted girls...!?

Having to deal with his abusive boss day after day while working an exploitative job, Yamase Fuyu has become tired of it all... Until one day he accidentally runs into Minase Ito, his ex-girlfriend from university. The sudden reunion lifts Fuyu's spirits, who wastes no time inviting Ito to chat over drinks. The two have a whale of a time sharing gripes and reminiscing about the past. But just as Fuyu begins to appreciate their new relationship as "just friends", they end up spending an intimate night together...
