Naoto Yanagi, the heir to the Yanagi corporate empire, was admired by everyone for his athletic skill, sharp mind, good looks, and wealth. Throughout elementary school, he lived like royalty—until Mikoto Kujou, a plain and gloomy transfer student, arrived. Because of her poor background, Naoto initially ignored her. Yet despite being new to the school, she surpassed him in everything, consistently earning the highest exam scores and winning every athletic event. After a brief confrontation that left him stunned, Naoto swore he would defeat her no matter what it took.
Ten years later, they are both attending the same university. Having failed to beat Mikoto throughout middle and high school, Naoto proposes one final contest: if he can make her fall in love with him and then break her heart, he will claim victory. But instead, he finds himself falling in love with her.
