Synopsis

Eiji Kitahama, a second year high school student, just wants to be popular. To help him realize this dream, Rin Nanakura, his junior in the drama club, uses her acting skills to create a harem of loving girls for him. Though the various "girls" all show fondness toward Eiji, the affection of the actress behind them is very real. Rin's colorful acting continuously delights Eiji, but will the starlet herself ever make her way into his heart?

Spoiler
This review will include some spoilers (though I think it's predictable).

It's a quick read too since the chapters are mostly short interactions taken out of context. But despite the lack of plot, the characters do make strides in their relationship. The art style is cute, and the author does a good job at depicting Rin's "personas". The humor was more of a mixed bag for me, as were the characters.
This manga follows Rin, who is infatuated with her senpai and flexes her acting ...
