365 Days to the Wedding Vol. 03
MEETING THE FAMILY TO STAY OUT OF SIBERIA
It was inevitable that Honjouji Rika would end up meeting Takuya’s family if they were to continue with their fake engagement plan, but nothing could have prepared her for the excitable Oohara lot! The two arrive in Kumamoto, intent on coming clean, but is that really so easy? And why is it that meeting Takuya’s beautiful and peppy childhood friend has Rika feeling so glum? Can the fake couple convince the Ooharas that they’re really not betrothed? Can they even convince themselves?
Inspired the TV Drama Map for the Wedding and an Anime Adaptation!
Series Overview: The J.T.C. travel agency is looking for someone to manage its brand-new branch in Irkutsk. But for employees Oohara Takuya and Honjouji Rika, they’d rather just stay home in Tokyo! Thankfully, they’ve discovered a way out—their manager has narrowed down the recruits to bachelors, so what if they just…got married? The problem is they barely know each other at all! Can they convince their office they’re engaged just long enough for the transfer to finish up?
