About
Uehara Yuuki dreams of making manga, but an editor at his preferred publisher dismisses his romantic comedy as unrealistic. The criticism hits hard, particularly because Uehara has no romantic experience to draw on. His classmate Miyamoto Niina, another aspiring manga artist, has faced much the same problem. She suggests they pretend to date so they can learn about romance firsthand and put that experience into their work. Neither behaves quite like the idealized leads in the other's stories, leaving plenty of room for awkward encounters and comic misunderstandings. Kakunaru Ue wa follows their creative ambitions alongside a playful, messy experiment in young love.
