If I’m going to find a girlfriend, she has to be an otaku. She’ll be beautiful, innocent, with long black hair, and she’ll like all the stuff that I like!

Kokoro Nishina, the girl I’m living with, is the exact opposite of that. So why did I promise that I’d turn that flashy, extroverted gyaru into the ideal otaku girlfriend?!

Sadly, I know just how it feels to need a little self-improvement to find the perfect date... and there’s no way a girl like that will tell her friends that she’s actually a closet fujoshi. But I’ll teach her—then maybe she can teach me too! With my expertise, she’ll definitely become an otaku’s dream girl!

Kokoro and I made a deal—we’ll help each other find the perfect otaku date. So, we''re looking for part-time jobs to meet (and possibly hook up with) new people, but... What the hell is she wearing?! Is she really going to let people take pictures of that skimpy cosplay?! You''re not going to find a boyfriend like that, trust me... I heard that there''s a new maid café opening soon, so maybe we could try there? That’s not even the best part—Mashiro''s going to be there! I already can’t wait to be surrounded by cute girls in maid outfits...

What am I going to do?! Elena overheard Kokoro in my house and now she wants our help cosplaying! I saw the outfit she’s planning to wear and...wow. Why is it so skimpy?! It looks like Kokoro’s going to the event to find a potential boyfriend. That''s cool and all, but why do I have to come? Well, I guess she does need someone to watch out for her after what happened last time...

Now Elena and Kokoro have come up with a plan that''ll get both of them used to wearing revealing costumes in public: “Let''s go to the pool—all three of us!”

That makes sense. Wait...three?!

Elena, the voice actress who goes to my school, confessed her love to me...I think. How am I supposed to process that?! Especially when there’s a more pressing issue to deal with—my little sister is coming back to Japan! If I don’t do something soon, Kisaki will find out that Kokoro and I live together. But Comiket is just around the corner! Elena, I’m so sorry, but this is going to be one busy summer…
