Kawaikunai ne, Kouhai-kun Manhua

Title: Not So Cute, Kouhai-kun Ida was known around Sakura High School for his serious demeanor and academic prowess, often seen buried in books or solving complex equations. On the other hand, Akutsu, his cheerful and outgoing kouhai, was a natural at sports and effortlessly popular. Their paths crossed one fateful day when Akutsu stumbled upon Ida struggling with a particularly tough calculus problem. Instead of poking fun at him like others would, Akutsu offered to help without hesitation. Ida, taken aback by this unexpected gesture, reluctantly accepted. To his surprise, Akutsu's explanation was clear and concise, making the daunting problem seem like a walk in the park. As days passed, Ida couldn't shake off the feeling of admiration towards his kouhai. Akutsu's carefree attitude and genuine kindness slowly chipped away at Ida's reserved exterior, creating a bond that neither of them expected. One rainy afternoon, as they found themselves seeking shelter under a cherry blossom tree, Ida stole a glance at Akutsu. The way his laughter echoed in the empty courtyard and the sparkle in his eyes captivated Ida like never before. And in that moment, surrounded by the delicate petals and the sound of raindrops, Ida felt something shift inside him. With a deep breath, Ida mustered the courage to speak. "You know, Akutsu, you may not be cute in the traditional sense, but you have a charm that's all your own." Akutsu turned to Ida, a soft smile playing on his lips. "And you, Ida, may seem unapproachable at first, but underneath that facade is someone truly remarkable." Their eyes met, a silent understanding passing between them. And as the rain continued to patter against the Sakura trees, Ida felt a warmth blooming in his chest, a feeling he couldn't quite put into words. Perhaps, in the most unexpected of places, he had found something truly special.
