A high-spirited romantic comedy about high school love triangles and social chaos, built on ensemble warmth and comedic misunderstanding rather than genuine stakes.

High school can be hard enough with just academics alone, but when love enters into the picture, it can unravel into a comedy of errors. Tenma has fallen for oblivious Karasama and class delinquent Harima has fallen for Tenma. While this unlikely trio winds their way through the pitfalls of love and high school life, their friends and classmates become caught up in the chaos.
