Senpai, This Can’t Be Love!

Senpai, This Can’t Be Love!

I wonder what you’d call this feeling…?

Friendly, confident, amazing at his job…All words applicable to veteran CG designer Yanase, now the mentor of the industrious new hire Kaneda. Yanase is eager to get along with his trainee, but he begins to lose heart in the face of Kaneda’s frosty indifference. However, on the inside, Kaneda’s been struggling to play it cool whenever Yanase so much as pats him on the back! Is this a simple case of hero worship, or is there something more to Kaneda’s feelings…?
