Spoilers ahead
Four close friends — the kind-hearted Natsuki Hashiba, the charming Tomoya Matsunaga, the enthusiastic otaku Tsuyoshi Naoe, and the rather sadistic Keiichi Katakura — embark on their second year of high school filled with adventures and challenges. As spring unfolds, Natsuki gathers the courage to approach Anna Kobayakawa, who graciously offers him her hand towel after he falls into a puddle. However, his attempt to return the towel is thwarted by Mari Tsutsui, Anna’s protective best friend. Consequently, the boys wager that Natsuki must ask Anna out by the end of the semester. To everyone’s surprise, he manages to get her Line ID, much to the dismay of Mari.
