*“Azuma-kun, will you do my nails for me⁉”* A coming-of-age romantic comedy featuring a dragon-blooded high school girl and a model-building high school boy! Hajime Azuma, a high school student skilled at building plastic models, is summoned to the rooftop one day by his classmate Sayori Goto, a half-dragon gal. Though Sayori seems like the life of the party, she actually has a problem that’s a matter of life and death for a gal: “My nails are too hard to get a manicure.” Having heard that manicures and plastic models are similar, Sayori asks Hajime to be her manicurist, but… Haoju, who has absolutely no experience with nails, struggles but eventually meets Sayori’s expectations through trial and error. Before long, he finds himself doing nails not just on her hands but on her feet too, and even creating designs for swimsuit photo shoots with other half-dragon gals—and so begins a hectic daily life!?

My summer vacation started with a kick in the backside, six years after I last saw her. I, Maori Ryuuto, had given up dancing for personal reasons, and now here she was: my childhood friend, back from America, all grown up into a beautiful girl. "Come on! Aim for my butt, go ahead, kick it with all your might!" How did things get like this? Apparently, Yuuzuki Arling Seiran, my childhood friend who had blossomed into a stunning beauty during her time abroad, was going to be living with me as part of a homestay program. Seriously?! "I want to see Ryuu-kun dance again," she said, her eyes sparkling with mischief. This is a coming-of-age story about how I, who had given up on dancing, find the courage to reach for the stars again. Or maybe it's just the story of my days being filled with the antics of this annoyingly adorable childhood friend who keeps making me dance to her tune. (Source: Overlap Bunko, translated)
