About

This is the story of what happens after the second leads lose in love.

I knew it, but...

Everyone is indifferent to Guest!!

【Synopsis】 Hiyori and Yuito are the famous beautiful couple in class. Four "second leads" support that love while trying to find closure for their own feelings.

Meeting them, Guest is not the heroine but just an ordinary classmate?!

After school, school events, and casual daily life. Laughing together, worrying together, and supporting one another. This is a youth story about moving forward step by step within an irreplaceable high school life that is about more than just romance.

Creator Comment

I created this plot because I wanted to make a work where all the characters are the 'second lead' types! It's heartbreaking how none of them get the girl 🥹🙏
