After her mom introduces her to a modeling gig, Nanami Minami's life will never be the same! With Tomozaki as an advisor, Minami's day-to-day life changes in a major way. Plus, Minami and Tomozaki's relationship develops in an unexpected way...
Winter is here. Tomozaki finds himself at odds with Kikuchi—and once again, words close the distance between them. Tomozaki confronts his own deeds, and that sheds light on one aspect of Kikuchi that previously went unnoticed. There are some things a bottom-tier character just won’t notice, things he can't pick up on. And then there’s Aoi Hinami, a person so special to both Tomozaki and Kikuchi… Can Tomozaki clear this difficult trial with his first-ever girlfriend?
March is here, and that means it's almost Hinami's birthday. Izumi plans a surprise party, along with a trip to Universal Studios in Osaka. As for the presents, it's a team competition--whoever makes the birthday girl the happiest wins. Together with Mizusawa and Kikuchi, Tomozaki decides to re-create one of those old-school games she loves so much. Things may have changed between him and Hinami, and he doesn't want to be the character she controls--but that doesn't mean he's ready to give up on her.
Hot on the heels of the hit light novel series Bottom-Tier Character Tomozaki comes this spinoff manga, written by the original author, Yuki Yaku, and starring the beloved Mimimi! Everyone wants to shine, and high schooler Minami Nanami is no exception. One day, she reaches a turning point, and her mother introduces her to the modeling industry. There, she discovers a whole new world, but nothing is ever that simple...
The day after the school festival ends, second-year Class Two holds a Christmas party to celebrate a job well done. While the festivities are in full swing, Tomozaki happens to notice Hinami and Kikuchi having a conversation. But when the two try to play it off as nothing, Tomozaki gets awfully curious... This short story collection provides a glimpse at the characters' lives and choices through the years: the birth of NONAME, Mimimi and Kikuchi's chat in a café, a karaoke party, Rena's life before she met Tomozaki...and much more!
The school festival is over, and so is winter break. Tomozaki has faced a major milestone, but now he has a new challenge to face: the career survey form. Of course, Hinami's training is still ongoing, too, and between an offline meeting with other Atafami players, a visit to Tama-chan's house, and a new relationship with Kikuchi, the new semester is looking to be as full as ever.
With the school culture festival looming, Tomozaki finds himself busier than ever, his attention split between helping Kikuchi with her script, developing a comedy show with Mimimi, and tackling an assignment from Hinami. As practice for the play begins, Kikuchi and Tomozaki decide to interview Hinami about her past in order to strengthen her connection with her role. But just what feelings will she have to face before the curtain rises...?
Everyone holds the desire to shine, and high school girl Minami Nanami is no exception. One day, she reaches a turning point: her mom introduces her to the world of modeling! But Minami's change has unexpected effects on her surroundings--and now, Tomozaki of all people is giving her advice?!
LOVE MIGHT BE THE HARDEST GAME OF ALL... It's November, and the school festival is right around the corner. Meetings with Hinami have begun again, and life has mostly returned to normal...until Hinami asks Tomozaki to decide who he wants to be his girlfriend by next week. As he searches for an answer, he's busy planning for the festival, taking photos, and even visiting another school with Mizusawa. But while Hinami's deadline approaches, Tomozaki will have to face his own emotions in a way he never has before...and those of someone close to him.
