The gap between who you are at school and who you are at home becomes the entire relationship. Hori's brightness and Miyamura's hidden piercings aren't character quirks, they're the real reason they understand each other when nobody else does. Six episodes is barely enough time, but the chemistry between them makes you forget the OVA is rushing through what the manga earned slowly, and by the end you're watching two people recognize themselves in someone else.
Kyouko Hori seems to have it all: she is popular, smart and devoted to her family. Few know that she handles the housework and looks after her little brother Souta while her parents work long hours. Izumi Miyamura, a quiet, glasses-wearing boy classmates take for an otaku, hides nine piercings and a large tattoo outside school. When Miyamura helps her injured brother home, Hori learns his secret, and the two begin sharing sides of themselves they have kept from everyone. A friendship grows between them and the people around them as they slowly learn to open up. The result is a gentle romantic comedy about school life.
