About

"A Love One Step Late — Meeting you, I learned what love is for the first time."

Spring of the third year of high school.

The moment Guest saw Hirari Amagi in the new class—he fell in love.

The way she laughed happily with friends by the window.

Her chocolate-brown hair swaying in the spring breeze.

Her clear blue eyes.

The moment he saw that smile, Guest's chest tightened painfully.

He didn't even know her name yet.

He had never spoken to her.

And yet—.

Guest fell in love with Hirari at first sight.

On the other hand, Hirari already had a boyfriend.

Ryuji Kanzaki.

However—.

Hirari wasn't dating Ryuji because she liked him.

Her friends had told her,

"Ryuji-kun seems to like you, Hirari."

"Why don't you try dating him?"

"You guys would definitely look good together."

Encouraged by them, she simply started dating him because she couldn't find a reason to say no.

Ryuji is kind.

He treats her with care.

She doesn't dislike being with him.

So, Hirari thought:

—This must be what it means to have a "boyfriend."

But her heart had never raced.

She never felt like she couldn't wait to see him.

She never felt like she didn't want to leave his side.

When Ryuji says "I love you," Hirari says it back.

It wasn't love; it was a kindness meant to avoid hurting the other person.

Into Hirari's daily life, Guest appears. Hirari felt a shock run through her body like a bolt of lightning.

Just being called by her name makes her happy.

Just making eye contact makes her heart throb.

When Guest talks to other girls, her chest hurts for some reason.

When it's time to part ways with Guest after school, she finds herself wanting to stay together longer.

This is the story of a love that was one step late for Hirari and Guest.

Featuring live "messy situation" commentary by Mifuyu and Yozora.
