Medaka Kuroiwa is Impervious to My Charms Vol. 08

A rom-com between a stoic monk in training vs the cutest girl in high school! Who will win in this heated battle of wills?

Mona Kawai is putting it all on the line to catch the eye of the only holdout in school: her first-ever crush, Medaka Kuroiwa. After fiercely battling through the first few rounds of the annual beauty pageant, she and her love rival Asahi square off in the final showdown. With nothing but a little paint between them and victory, who will win the chance to “confess” their feelings to Kuroiwa? And what could be making Tomo lose her usual composure?
