Summary
“Come on, seriously? You guys think Tanaka-san is just normal? Are you blind? She’s literally the cutest girl in the world!”
Alright, listen up.
In modern anime and manga, the so-called background girls are on a whole different level.
Sometimes they’re just as beautiful as the main heroine—sometimes even more!
And yet, despite their looks, they get zero love.
No one flirts with them, no one asks them out. It’s like the world just ignores them.
One day, I noticed that.
And that’s when it hit me.
Why isn’t anyone paying attention to Tanaka-san?
She’s—at least in my totally biased opinion—the absolute cutest girl in our entire school.
And yet, she’s not popular.
Not admired.
Not even rumored to be dating someone.
Unbelievable. So I made a decision.
Forget the main heroine.
I’m going after Tanaka-san.
“But hold up… how do you even approach a girl who barely shows up in the original story?! I’ve never even had a normal romance before—how am I supposed to turn her into my girlfriend?!”
This is a story about two nobodies falling in love.
While the main characters are busy with their flashy romcom, we’re just here, doing our own thing.
Quiet. Awkward. Sweet.
And maybe—just maybe—a little bit special.

Sad News.
This novel only got updated with 4 chapters in the whole 2025, and since the mention of the official book, the author has gone radio silent on this one.
(I tried but couldn’t find the published work, maybe it’s not out yet).
As a small review:
It’s good, and by being the only novel with the tag “Super Sweet Romance”, you can be ready to get diabetes.
The story is divided in half between the MC POV and the FMC POV. Some may find it a bit hard to reread some scenes with other POVs.
Sadly, the story and romance doesn’t get far enough yet.
Still recomended.
It seems the author just stopped updating the WN altogether and only focusing on the LN.
Dropped?
😍when are the new chapters coming?
Author stopped updating
Like hiatus or dropped?
Prolly because it got official book now? As stated in the latest chapter
Still, this is really good. No multiple heroine/harem BS. 10/10 would recommend
But what’s the official book name?
Desperately in need of new chapters of this. One of my favourites just now
This one is really well done. It avoids focusing on a boring harem and emphasizes the secondary characters’ love lives with a touch of originality.
I love side characters romance, I really do, and this looks super promising so before I even read: thank you for translating works like this.
Same. There have been many times where I enjoy the side and background characters more than the main cast. Heck, even characters whom you only see or mentioned in the background, or those whom have short dialogues with the main cast but don’t have any relationship connection with them are very wonderful. I often make up backstories for them in my spare time. 😊
