About Can a Boy-Girl Friendship Survive?

In a quiet countryside middle school, a boy and a girl vow to be friends forever. Sharing a dream, they become inseparable—“shin’yuu,” or soulmates in purpose.

Without any romantic developments, two years pass. Himari Inuzuka, a cheerful and outgoing girl who's never experienced first love, and Yu Natsume, a plant-loving boy who makes flower accessories, remain close friends in their private high school gardening club.

However, everything changes when Yuu reconnects with his first love. Suddenly, the dynamic between the two begins to shift. Can Himari, now discovering the feeling of love, break free from being his “ideal best friend”?
