A student at Chidori High. Rintaro is a very kind and calm person, but his blonde hair and piercings—adopted due to struggles with self-expression in his childhood—have led to many writing him off as a delinquent. The exceptions to this are his close friends at Chidori High, as well as [Kaoruko](https://anilist.co/character/268676), a girl from an opposing school known as Kikyo Private Academy. After first meeting Kaoruko in his family's cake shop, Rintaro gradually begins to spend more time with her.

~!Later, Rintaro falls for Kaoruko and confesses his feelings to her. While this causes some awkwardness between the two at first, she eventually returns his feelings and they begin dating.!~

This story takes place in a particular town with two infamous schools in constant dispute: Chidori High, a boys' school predominantly attended by low-class students with damning grades, and its neighbor Kikyo Girls' High, with most of its female students coming from wealthy and prestigious families. One day, high school second-year Rintaro Tsumugi, a fierce-looking but gentle-minded student at Chidori, is helping at his family's patisserie when he encounters a female customer by the name of Kaoruko Waguri. Rintaro enjoys his time with Kaoruko, as she doesn't judge him for his appearance, but this blissful peace is quickly disturbed when Rintaro makes the discovery that Kaoruko is actually a student at Kikyo. This revelation marks the beginning of the two's strenuous tale, as they fight against the limitations placed upon them by their schools and surroundings in an attempt to find their own path!
