Story & Plot

Sora Akizuki is a second year at Shukai High School, and he has liked Miya Fuwa, a first year he has known since middle school, for a long time. When he finally confesses, she rejects him on the spot.

The reason soon comes out. Miya's crush is Suzukaze, the president of the school's Clinical Trials Club, a mysterious club nobody quite understands. Sora goes to the club to check whether this Suzukaze is really worthy of her, and finds that the president is a girl: Asahi Suzukaze, a third year who runs the club to make people smile through trying new things.

Asahi recruits Sora into the club on the spot, in exchange for giving him love advice. But Asahi has a confession of her own: she is still searching for a boy she met as a child, the one she calls the Prince of Clinical Trials, and she has loved him ever since. So the chain runs Sora to Miya, Miya to Asahi, and Asahi to a boy who is nowhere to be found, and the harder everyone pulls on it, the tighter the loop gets.

Who Is It For?

My Crush's Crush suits viewers who like school romantic comedies built on a simple, funny problem: everyone is sincere, everyone is honest, and it still does not line up. The Clinical Trials Club gives the romance a setting of its own, part clubroom comedy, part experiment, and the loop at the centre means every confession moves the problem rather than solving it.
