Isaku wants one normal thing: a life that isn't defined by her grandfather's name. Keiya shows up to guard her and immediately becomes the reason she can't have it. The chemistry between them is electric precisely because he's the one person who sees her as herself, not as leverage, and she knows he's lying to her the entire time. The animation during their scenes together justifies every frame. Romance fans who've exhausted Yakuza Lover will recognize this as the fix they didn't know they needed, even if the rest of the production sometimes looks like it was finished in a rush.

Isaku craves the kind of normal high school experience most people take for granted. Being the granddaughter of a yakuza boss has made that impossible. Friendships never stick. Romance feels out of reach. So she enrolls at a school far from home, determined to start fresh without her family's shadow following her around. Her plan crumbles when Keiya, the 26-year-old clan member who helped raise her, decides on his own to enroll as a student at the same school so he can protect her. Rough around the edges and openly overprotective, Keiya turns her carefully planned normal life into something complicated. The situation is harder still because Isaku has long harbored feelings for him, while he sees her only as the boss's granddaughter. The drama and romance come from her wish to move on and live freely, set against a guardian who keeps crossing her boundaries.
