3D Kanojo: Real Girl

Socially awkward Hikari Tsutsui has always preferred the company of his 2D anime and game heroines to the messy reality of human interaction. His quiet, insulated world is upended when a chance encounter pairs him with Iroha Igarashi, a reputedly "real girl" who embodies everything he finds intimidating: she's beautiful, fashionable, and seemingly out of his league. Their unlikely connection, however, might just be the catalyst Hikari needs to step out of his comfort zone. As Hikari navigates this bewildering new friendship, he's forced to confront his own preconceptions and the very real challenges of a burgeoning relationship. This charming coming-of-age story explores the trials and triumphs of first love, the awkwardness of adolescence, and the unexpected ways people can connect when they dare to look beyond appearances.
