Episode 6 Story
After eating too much ramen following club practice, Sae Iwata takes a day off from school. The next day, Koki Kamishiro injures himself during morning practice and also stays home. The two exchange their class notes for the days they missed, which leads them to start messaging each other. During one of these exchanges, Koki finds out that Sae has someone she likes. When he cheers her on with a simple “Do your best,” Sae realises that, once again, her feelings for Koki are not reaching him.

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!
