What is Shikimori’s Not Just a Cutie About?
Shikimori's Not Just a Cutie follows a high school pair who, at first appearance, appears to be your average couple who frequently hang out with each other and demonstrate public displays of affection here and there. High school sweethearts Izumi Yuu and Micchon Shikimori, on the other hand, are very different from the rest.
Shikimori always saves Izumi by shifting into her strong and heroin-like demeanor, while Izumi is a hapless and feeble boy who frequently finds himself in dangerous situations. Shikimori is nicknamed the school's "heartthrob girlfriend" for Izumi's sake, which is a far cry from her natural nature.
