Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun

A quiet classroom tableau gets shaken up when a problem student plants himself beside the class’s most disciplined girl. Their friendship blooms as she learns to crack jokes and he discovers homework. The question isn’t whether love will bloom, but whether Haru will remember to shower before the big date.
