1. Heroine and Background Character

Junta may be a living NPC, but Kubo’s dare just turned him into the momentary main character! But if he’s the hero, what does that make her?

2. Bad Luck and Home Visit

Kubo wants to stop by Junta’s house and borrow a manga volume. That’s definitely the only reason she wants to know where he lives. No other reason at all…

3. The Nobody's Gift

Junta knows he's invisible to others, so no one will notice if he peeks at a certain magazine, right? Unfortunately, the store clerk can see him just as easily as Kubo can.

4. Red Heart and Secret Admirer

It’s Valentine’s Day for his classmates, but an ordinary Monday for Junta. Except someone left sweets at his desk. It must have been an accident; it’s the only explanation!

5. White Day and a Destination for Feelings

A question from a friend causes Kubo to realize something: what does she know about Junta, anyway?

6. Nurse's Office and Main Character

Another person notices Junta's presence, and Junta slowly feels like a main character.

7. Sleepover and Next School Year

They all may be in separate classes next year, so it’s important to spend time with each other now while they still can. And that means umbrella experiments and sleepovers.

8. Picnic and Miscommunication

As the cherry blossoms bloom, Kubo and her sisters plan a picnic. They invite Junta and his little brother, but there are a few hiccups along the way.

9. New School Year and Class Change

Junta doesn’t foresee any changes during the new school year, especially since he and Kubo are in the same class again. There is one difference, though: a potential new friend.

11. Movie Theater and Facial Muscles

Junta’s simple plan to see a movie turns into something more when Kubo invites herself along.

12. Starring Role and Gift

In what ways has Junta’s life changed for the better? Regardless of the answer, it’s all thanks to Kubo.
