"If I believed in Santa Claus for ten whole years, then I can believe in myself for the next ten seconds!!!"
Hikigaya Komori grew up in the middle of nowhere and learned everything she knows about human behavior and social dynamics from reading books and playing dating sims.
Through a series of happenstances and misunderstandings, she ends up crossing paths with Kohinata Koharu, former student council president and resident popular girl.
Setting aside the fact that Komori doesn't believe in genuine altruism, she can't figure out why someone at the top of the pecking order would rub shoulders with a lowly ant like her...
But for the longest time, she has wanted to change... if only she could.
Now that she can, the opportunity is paired with the harrowing realization that rest of her youth depends on Koharu's opinion of her. Now, she must decide whether she can grow out of her shell or face tragedy.
A thriving social life might be a bit of a stretch, but surely, she can manage to make a few friends, right?
...Right??
