Cast: YAMAZAKI Kore

Kanako is a young woman who is running an old book store. One day, a customer comes in who shares her taste in books. He's a teenager named Akio, and he and Kanako quickly find that their taste in books is only the first of many ways that they fit together well. Kanako immediately realizes she wants him, and soon blurts out awkward things, like proposals of marriage and cohabitation. Despite their different ages and their awkwardness, it seems like their relationship has the potential to grow into something beautiful.

With her mother dead and father long gone, Chise Hatori has spent her childhood being passed unwanted from relative to relative,until she finally makes her unfortunate way to a strange and improbable auction block. Offered as a “Slay Vega” to the highest bidder, Chise is purchased by the (literally) boneheaded Elias Ainsworth, who promises to take her on as his apprentice. Elias is a mage, and his world is one of dragons and faeries - but before Chise can begin to get accustomed to all of this, Elias drops another bombshell. Apparently Chise isn't just intended to be his apprentice - she will also be his bride.
