Mutsurugi Nana, who leads a self-indulgent, unemployed life, is still waiting for her ideal prince to come one day while satisfying her need for approval by uploading doctored selfies on the Internet. Then, Tsukasa, a candidate for the "ideal prince" appears, praising Nana as "cute" and escorting her home gently. Nana is so impressed by Tsukasa's words and acts that she couldn't help herself from falling for Tsukasa.
