About the story

Izumi Sena (voiced by Tsubasa Yonaga) comes from a show-business family: his parents and older brother are popular stars. Izumi alone is an ordinary university student, an introverted, gloomy otaku who dreams of becoming a manga artist. His personality stems from a commercial filmed ten years earlier, when he was unexpectedly assigned the role of a flower girl opposite Ryoma Ichijo (voiced by Takuya Eguchi), who played the page boy. A mishap during filming left Izumi afraid of show business. Ryoma, by contrast, enjoyed smooth success and became a hugely popular idol, while continuing to pine for that tearful little flower girl. Ten years later, Izumi is invited to another commercial with Ryoma. He wants to refuse, but under family pressure and persuasion, he dresses as a woman once again. Ryoma is thrilled by their reunion and confesses his love to “Miss Izumi” after filming—only to discover that the Izumi he has dreamed of for ten years is a man.
