Synopsis of Senpai Is An Otokonoko

Makoto Hanaoka, a female second-year student, easily attracts the attention of others. Saki Aoi, a first-year student, is no exception and falls in love with Makoto at first sight. Having a vibrant and vigorous personality, he does not hesitate to confess his feelings to his superior. However, Makoto differs significantly from the person Saki perceives: Makoto is not a girl, but a cross-dressing boy!

After revealing Saki his well-known secret, Makoto hopes that she will be upset. Surprisingly, this revelation captivates her. However, he continues to reject her, but Saki's determination does not prevent him from declaring that he will become his first love. With Saki and her childhood friend by his side, Makoto's world lights up, giving him strength in the midst of his struggle between his interests and the expectations placed on him.
