Hotaru is a 16-year-old freshman high school student who has always been vague about love, preferring instead to lead a vibrant life with family and friends. So when she sees her schoolmate, Hananoi-kun, sitting in the snow after a messy, public breakup, she gives no thought to offering to share her umbrella. But when he asks her out in the middle of class the next day, she can’t help feeling that her life is about to change in a big way…
Morino launched the Wake Up, Sleeping Beauty manga in Monthly Dessert magazine in 2014, and the manga ended in the sixth and final volume, which was released in July 2017.
