An Artist, His Muse, and a High School Romance
The story follows Kuraki, a subdued second-year high school student who secretly draws manga in his free time. Struggling to capture the bright, bubbly personalities he envisions, his protagonists inevitably end up reflecting his own gloomy demeanor. Everything changes when he crosses paths with Urara Haruno, a radiant classmate from an exclusive private school for wealthy young women. Sparked by sudden inspiration, Kuraki channels her vibrant energy into a brand-new chapter drawn entirely in a single sitting—setting the stage for a budding relationship as his muse discovers his work.
