Synopsis:
Tina, a beautiful and sweet Russian girl, is a transfer student.

In this case, the only person she can count on is the protagonist Iori, who is hated by everyone due to a certain misunderstanding.
Now the second one is called Tokidoki Bosotto Russia-go by Dereru Tonari no Aalya-san written by Sun Sun Sun and illustrated by Momoco.
Synopsis:
The story follows Masachika, an ordinary student who was lucky enough to sit next to Aalya, a beautiful, silver-haired Russian woman. Aalya constantly says things in Russian to Masachika as if they were insults, usually making him smile.
