About this title

Synopsis

In the play of life, all Hikaru Takabayashi wanted was to be part of the scenery. Tormented by jealous schoolmates ever since she appeared in a famous commercial in grade-school, Hikaru transfers to a prestigious all-girls' academy where she hopes to settle down to a quiet life of anonymity. But when her new roommate turns out to be the super-popular TV idol Izumi Kido, Hikaru finds herself thrown smack in the spotlight's glare once more! And as if living with a celebrity wasn't bad enough, Hikaru discovers that there's more to Izumi than her "good girl" image—she's a he! And this is only the first of Izumi's many dangerous secrets! Now Hikaru's the unwilling star player in a madcap tale of deception, abduction, humiliation and blackmail... you know—the usual romantic stuff. (Source: Go! Comi)

Age: 15 Birthday: April 1 Blood type: B As a TV and magazine celebrity, Izumi is idolized by guys and girls across Japan as the "perfect girlfriend." There's only one problem with this picture—She's really a guy! To maintain his persona, Izumi attends an all girls' school. The only one on campus who knows Izumi's secret is his bodyguard, Yasukuni, who poses as the school's janitor. All this changes when Izumi's new roommate, Hikaru, literally catches Izumi with his pants down. This is something of a blessing in disguise for Izumi, who blackmails Hikaru into helping him maintain his illusion. But why is Izumi so desperate for money, anyway? He doesn't seem to be keeping it for himself… And why is Yasukuni so fiercely loyal to him? There are more secrets surrounding this heartthrob than just his gender!

Age: 15 Birthday: January 1 Blood type: A When she was in grade school, Hikaru appeared in a widely seen TV commercial. Ever since then, she’s been harassed by jealous classmates. As a result, Hikaru grew up without any friends (except for her faithful pug Sumikko). She’s something of a tomboy, but her beauty still comes through. She’s not so much an ugly duckling as an ostrich who just needs to get her head out of the sand! When her parents move to France, Hikaru transfers to the prestigious Seika Academy, an all-girls school renowned for grooming girls into “Yamato Nadeshiko,” perfect Japanese women. That’s all well and good—all Hikaru wants is a chance to be anonymous. Luck’s not on her side, however. Her new roommate turns out to be the most famous student in the school, pop idol Izumi Kido. Things get even worse for Hikaru when she discovers Izumi’s biggest secret. Now, wherever Izumi goes, Hikaru is forced to follow. Will life in the spotlight push the neurotic Hikaru over the edge, or will Izumi’s anything-but-predictable ways help the shy girl to blossom?
