Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings in Russian

Synopsis

At Seirei Academy, a prestigious institution renowned for its rigorous standards, Alisa Mikhailovna "Alya" Kujou serves as the student council treasurer. Being half-Russian and half-Japanese, Alya is celebrated for her sharp intellect, striking appearance, and stern demeanor. Her classmate, Masachika Kuze, presents a stark contrast; he frequently skips classes and appears largely uninterested in Alya. While Alya initially finds Masachika irritating, she gradually develops a deep affection for him and begins voicing her romantic feelings in Russian. Unbeknownst to Alya, Masachika comprehends every word she speaks, a skill acquired through past studies of the language driven by his desire to reconnect with a childhood friend who once resided in Japan. As they spend increasing amounts of time together, their dynamic shifts from casual interactions into a deeper, more unique bond. Both Alya and Masachika must navigate the complex emotions emerging between them.
