Tomoya Aki, a boy who began working part-time to earn enough money to buy an anime Blu-Ray box, meets a beautiful girl on his way home one night. As the producer of a dojin software brand, he models the Heroine of his newest game after her. However, he finds out a month later that the girl is in fact his classmate, and he doesn’t know her name. He learns that the girl — named Megumi — actually is hardly noticed by others.
