Teasing Master Takagi-san

からかい上手の高木さん

Nishikata sits next to Takagi in their middle school class, and she never misses a chance to tease him. Every day he schemes to finally make her blush first, and every day Takagi reads his plan, turns it around, and leaves him red-faced instead. Their running game plays out in classrooms, on walks home, and in small everyday challenges, with Takagi always a step ahead. Beneath the teasing runs a quiet affection that colors each of their daily exchanges.
