Synopsis
Ijiranaide, Nagatoro-san is a romance-comedy anime that tells the story of Naoto Hachioji, an introverted second-year high school student in Japan. Naoto doesn't usually socialize and prefers to stay in his corner of the art club or library, working on projects or studying. However, things change for Naoto when a freshman—Nagatoro—ends up reading some of the manga he was writing after he dropped them on the library floor. Since then, the girl has been following her "senpai" around, annoying him as much as she can.
Furthermore, Nanashi launched the manga Ijiranaide, Nagatoro-san on Kodansha in November 2017. Moreover, at this time the manga has 8 published volumes and over 1.2 million copies sold (including the digital version on the Magazine Pocket app).
