No-Rin

Kousaku Hata lives for idols, so when his beloved star Yuka Kusakabe abruptly announces her retirement at the height of her career, he takes it hard. The shock sends him into a slump and self-imposed isolation, and it takes his friends’ persistence to finally get him back through the school gates.

That return comes with an unbelievable twist: Yuka is now in his class, having transferred in under the name Ringo Kinoshita. With his teacher and friends in his corner, Kousaku throws himself into the chance he never thought he’d get—trying to draw closer to her while searching for the real reason she walked away from the spotlight.
