Synopsis – Honey Lemon Soda

Uka Ishimori, 15, had a very difficult experience in middle school. Nicknamed "Rocky" because she always froze in front of others, she was constantly persecuted.

Now in high school, she has the opportunity to start from scratch and improve. But during her first week, she is accidentally sprayed with juice by her classmate Kai Miura, a flamboyant boy with lemon-colored hair. On paper, Kai is everything Uka lacks: he's popular, aloof, and bold enough to speak his mind.

Despite their contrasting personalities, Kai encourages her to gradually come out of her shell, offering help where others were hesitant to do so. Although Uka initially wanted to make friends, she realizes her true feelings: she has fallen in love with Kai. What started with a lemon soda is about to change Uka and Kai's lives forever.
