My Dress-Up Darling
A warm, playful romantic comedy about two high schoolers from opposite worlds discovering shared passion through cosplay and craft, built on genuine affection and mutual enthusiasm.
High schooler Wakana Gojo wants to become a kashirashi—a master craftsman who makes traditional Japanese Hina dolls. Though he's gung-ho about the craft, he knows nothing about the latest trends, and has a hard time fitting in with his class. The popular kids—especially one girl, Marin Kitagawa—seem like they live in a completely different world. That all changes one day, when she shares an unexpected secret with him, and their completely different worlds collide.
