Don’t be that shy girl who pines for her crush. It’s not the same with Tomo Aizawa! She’s a tomboy with a good heart, and she loves her best friend Jun like a pup. The catch is that he sees her as bro, not boo. The antics of Tomo and Jun, who doesn’t know what’s going on, make this cartoon a comedy goldmine. This is a new take on the relationship genre that shows love can be messy, funny, and worth it all.
