Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun plot recap, spoiler-light
High school student Chiyo Sakura harbors romantic feelings for her classmate Umetarou Nozaki. When she finally summons the courage to confess her love to him, Nozaki completely misunderstands the situation, thinking she is simply a dedicated fan, and hands her an autograph instead. When she expresses her desire to stay by his side, he invites her back to his home and puts her to work drawing.
It is there that Chiyo uncovers a surprising truth: Nozaki is actually a renowned shojo manga artist who publishes work under the female pen name Sakiko Yumeno. Eager to spend more time with her crush and grow closer to him, Chiyo readily agrees to work as his assistant. As they pour their efforts into producing the manga titled Let's Fall in Love, also known as Let's Have a Romance, they cross paths with several other schoolmates. These peers end up joining the creative process, lending a hand with the artwork while simultaneously acting as real-life inspirations for the characters and plots appearing within the pages of Nozaki's ongoing publication.
