Maria†Holic

Kanako Miyamae transfers to Ame no Kisaki Catholic School hoping to find true love, inspired by the story of how her parents met there. With a severe allergy to men that leaves her breaking out in hives, she sets her sights on romance at an all-girls academy, convinced it’s the perfect place to meet a partner.

Her hopes soar when she encounters the striking Mariya Shidou—until she discovers Mariya’s secret: “she” is actually a boy in disguise. Mariya uses that revelation to keep Kanako quiet, threatening to expose her motives unless she protects his identity, and even maneuvers his way into becoming her roommate. Caught between her own romantic ideals and Mariya’s watchful presence, Kanako’s search for the girl of her dreams quickly turns into a chaotic, awkward ordeal.
