Shoki Renai Tan Henshu Jokan – Senpai To Koisuru Aka Oni-Kun –

A collection of four early romance short stories. In *The Red Oni Boy in Love with His Senior*, gardening club member Tomono secretly grows vegetables for the cooking club president he adores, despite knowing his love is hopeless—until one day, he's invited to the kitchen. *The Melancholy of a 15-Year-Old* follows Yukari, who helps at her father's tiny bookstore and encounters a salaryman-like customer, only to reunite with him at her high school entrance ceremony. In *Re: Youth Play*, apathetic student Madoka's life takes a small turn when she meets a twenty-year-old transfer student. Finally, *The Friday Princess, Books, and a Jerk* sees quiet librarian Himesaki confronted by a flashy junior in the silent Friday library.
