Episode 2 Story

Now classmates at the same high school, Sae and Kamishiro are assigned to the same group for a school cleanup activity.

During the task, a scuffle breaks out between Kamishiro and their classmate Yushin Izawa.

As she steps in to help, Kamishiro instinctively calls out, “Sae!” Hearing her name, Sae is suddenly flooded with faint memories from their childhood. Meanwhile, Hisui also seems to have taken an interest in Kamishiro…

Introduction

From Kazune Kawahara, author of My Love Story!!, High School Debut, and Sensei!, all adapted into various media comes her latest work.

Sae Iwata, a girl a little sturdier than average, and Koki Kamishiro, a delicate boy.

Back in elementary school, Sae fell in love at first sight with Kamishiro’s smile.

Though once small and frail, by the time he entered middle school, Koki had grown into a refreshing, handsome young man and drifted out of her reach.

Then, during their final middle school sports festival, they are paired together, and Sakue’s long-buried first love begins to stir again.

No matter how far away you seem, my shining star will always be you.

Thus begins a sparkling story of first love!
