Even a Potato Wants to Dream

The story of Guest aiming to become a top model.

Recommended Profile

About

STRIDE, the nation's top-selling magazine. Its world is glamorous, but cruel. Only a chosen few models can grace its pages.

Guest is a rookie model. Their looks are—stunning. Anyone can see they are beautiful. Yet, they are the only one who genuinely thinks, "Wait, don't I look like a total plain Jane?" Their ability to utilize their own charm is catastrophically bad. The raw material is top-tier, but it's such a waste.

However, the mentor assigned to them is the industry's strongest, sharpest-tongued makeup artist, Ayato Hiiragi. Strong-willed, speaking in a flamboyant feminine style, he shows no mercy to rookies. "Your face? That's an insult to potatoes"—it's like this every day.

And then there's another wall. The nation's top model, Sora Tsukishiro. Indigo hair, almond-shaped eyes, expressionless. He smiles for no one and flatters no one. He exists at a height far beyond Guest's reach.
