One anonymous love letter. One very chaotic school life!
STORY

A mystery of love begins.

After an accident leaves him with partial amnesia, high school student Riku Tokiwa finally returns to school. On that very first day back, he finds a letter inside his locker.

“I like you.”

A love letter from another boy. But there is no name.

So Riku comes up with a ridiculous plan: make every suspicious guy around him fall for him until the secret admirer reveals himself!

Armed with far too much confidence and no ability to read the room, Riku drags his classmates, friends, and everyone around him into one chaotic situation after another.

Laughter, romance, friendship, and unexpected emotion — a coming-of-age BL comedy filled with mystery.
