Synopsis of Sono Bisque Doll wa Koi wo Suru

Engrossed in the family business of traditional doll making, Wakana Gojou is a reserved first-year high school student with no friends. With the painful memory of a childhood friend's disregard for his interest, Gojou can't relate to his classmates and hobbies, so he ends up isolating himself. Gojou has not yet perfected the crafting of doll faces, but he is exceptionally skilled at making his clothes. His skill with the sewing machine is soon discovered by his beautiful companion Marin Kitagawa, whose boldness and honesty Gojou both admires and envies. Instantly, he shares with Gojou his own hobby: he likes to dress up as erotic video game characters.

However, Kitagawa does not know how to sew her own costumes, which leads her to seek Gojou's expertise. Drawn into the lovely girl's endless cosplay-related adventures, Kitagawa becomes her first friend who fully accepts him. Thus, although they are polar opposites, their relationship slowly blossoms thanks to their ability to help each other in the intricate world of cosplay.
