Synopsis

The story follows Ranmaru, a super-negative college student. It's two months into Ranmaru's college career, and if he's learned one thing, it’s that he’s really uncomfortable around other people. But when he stumbles into a zombie mob attack, he’s totally forced out of his comfort zone! Of course it's just a movie shoot, but when he wakes up from his ignoble faint, he's been whisked away behind the scenes with the Art Squad! Could this group of weirdos be what Ranmaru's been looking for all his life?!

I've never met a single person who read this except from my sibling, who borrowed it from me, and it's such a shame.

The art is really good, very shoujo-esque with the use of light, sparkles, flowers etc, almost like a more polished version of the artstyle in Host Club.

The characters are lovable and sometimes deep, ...
