The protagonist of this work, Adachi is a delinquent girl who has hardly attended classes since entering high school and has been skipping classes everywhere in the school. Although she looks very beautiful, she is shy and cannot blend in with the people around her, and is seen as cold by those around her.
She works part-time at a Chinese restaurant, and is made to wear a Chinese dress because she is young, and out of embarrassment, she has not revealed where she works.
By the way, in the work, only her parents call Adachi by her first name.
Adachi and Shimamura meet
The second semester has begun and Adachi is skipping class as usual. Shimamura suddenly appears. The two were in the same class, but Adachi, who has hardly attended classes since entering the school, naturally has no way of knowing this.
Shimamura seems to know Adachi by name only and talks to him. When asked, "Are you a regular here?" Adachi replies, "Today, by coincidence..." Adachi at this time had no interest in Shimamura at all, and perhaps because he was embarrassed that his classmates had found out where he was skipping class, he gave a cold reply and the conversation ended.
Adachi and Shimamura are together for no particular reason
The relationship between the two of them, who do not interfere with each other deeply and maintain a moderate distance, is comfortable for both Adachi and Shimamura, and the distance between them gradually decreases.
There is no arrangement to meet, and when he goes there just because he skips class, he is there. The two of them must have felt something similar.
In fact, this kind of relationship is not often seen in modern society, so I feel a little envious.
The map Adachi gave
When Adachi was asked, "Would you rather take class together or go home together?", he decided to kill time somewhere and go home with Shimamura. He still doesn't want to be with everyone in the classroom, but he seems to have opened up to Shimamura.
Their houses are in completely different directions, so when Adachi arrives home, he draws Shimamura a map to get home. Shimamura is happy that he can come to his house with this, but... no matter how you look at it, it's too simple (lol). Adachi is surprisingly rough.
Kindness to Shimamura shown from time to time
Adachi is kind, checking to see if Shimamura is wet in the rain and throwing a towel from outside the room.
Adachi is the best for being so considerate!
Adachi is jealous without even realizing it
Adachi has been spending more time with Shimamura, but Shimamura has two friends, Hino and Nagato. Hino and Nagato appear when Adachi and Shimamura are playing table tennis on the second floor of the gym, their oasis.
This must be a very awkward situation for Adachi, whose only friend is Shimamura. At first glance, the four of them seem to be having a lively conversation, but Hino and Nagato are not talking to Adachi, and Adachi naturally keeps his distance.
Suddenly feeling as if his friend had been taken from him, Adachi seems to be beginning to realize that he needs Shimamura.
Adachi wants a reason to meet Shimamura
Adachi bought bread and mineral water and was planning to give them to Shimamura during lunch break, but he missed the chance when Hino and Nagato showed up. After school, he chases Shimamura on his way home and gives him the things he had bought.
Shimamura, realizing that all of these things could be bought at the store, remembers Adachi's words, "I'll go buy lunch next time."
Spoiled Adachi
The two were relaxing on the second floor of the gym as usual. Adachi suddenly asked Shimamura if he could rest his head on his lap. He was probably tired from his busy part-time job and was taking a break, but they were completely in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.
Shimamura accepted surprisingly easily, so Adachi turned his face back to Shimamura. Adachi said that this side smelled more like Shimamura's, showing his spoiled side as he wanted to feel Shimamura closer to him.
Finally, he's going to class
Shimamura, who claims to be from the future, tells him, "The most important thing is to think that way first," so he invites Adachi to class, thinking that he won't get anywhere unless he says it out loud.
Adachi is confused by the suddenness of the situation, but when Shimamura tells him, "It'll be more fun if we advance to the second year together," he surprisingly accepts. Adachi's desire to continue being with Shimamura makes him take a new step.
By the way, at this time, Adachi has his bicycle repaired and walks to class. It probably wasn't a problem for her at all if it meant meeting Shimamura.
Secret part-time job in a Chinese dress
Even when Shimamura asks Adachi what part-time job he does, he refuses to tell him. In fact, it's because he's embarrassed to be seen in this Chinese dress.
It's certainly embarrassing to be the only one wearing a Chinese dress. However, Shimamura unexpectedly sees her in this Chinese dress, which she had been hiding all this time. And the whole family... Adachi was worried about what Shimamura thought of him in his part-time job, but when Shimamura said, "You looked cute," Adachi felt relieved and embarrassed at the same time, and gave a mysterious reply, "Shimamura is cute too."
After trial and error... I ended up wearing a Chinese dress
Adachi decided to go out with Shimamura on Christmas. He tried out various things, such as buying new clothes, but he was not satisfied, so he decided to wear the Chinese dress that Shimamura had once praised him for being cute.
Shimamura says that she might look like a tout for a strange shop, but if you see a woman in a Chinese dress in the city, you can be sure she's a cosplayer or a tout for a strange shop.
I guess Adachi's charm is that she's a little naive and lacks common sense, or a sense of fashion.
Adachi's immature side
Adachi was excited because he had made a promise to go out with Shimamura, but by chance he met Yashiro and for some reason the three of them went out together...
When Yashiro sits next to Shimamura at a family restaurant, Adachi makes Shimamura move to the back and sits next to him, creating a mysterious formation with the three of them sitting side by side at the table. When Yashiro teases Shimamura, Adachi teases him back.
In the end, Adachi ends up having a bowling challenge with Yashiro, which is quite childish. He seems to have a very strong possessiveness.
Adachi realizes his true feelings
On the way back from karaoke with Adachi, Shimamura, Hino, and Nagato, various thoughts about Shimamura ran through his head, and before he knew it, Adachi was asking, "Would you like to stroke my head?"
It was a sudden comment, but when Shimamura gently stroked his head, Adachi realized that he wanted to be special to Shimamura.
Am I weird? Adachi wondered, but in this scene he decided to live true to himself, saying that it didn't matter if he was weird if he could be special to Shimamura.
Why did Adachi become depressed? Adachi's past
When Adachi was taken to the zoo as a child, he showed little reaction to anything he saw, and his parents decided to leave immediately after seeing his reaction.
On the way home, Adachi liked a stuffed animal that was on sale at the shop, but when he saw his parents trying to leave early because of him, he left without being able to ask them to buy it for him. From that experience, Adachi became withdrawn no matter what hope he saw, lost interest in those around him, and became depressed.
However, his encounter with Shimamura freed Adachi's blocked heart.
Adachi Mama Met with Shimamura
Shimamura, who was taken to the gym by his mother, met Adachi's mother.
After losing the sauna contest with Shimamura, Adachi's mother kept her promise to act like a good mother and ate dinner with Adachi.
They look beautiful and similar, but they are also similar in that they are both conscientious and keep their promises to strangers.
Little by little, with people other than Shimamura...
Adachi, who was worried about what Christmas present Shimamura should get, decided to consult with Hino, who has known Shimamura for a long time. Based on information that Shimamura might have liked some tea, Adachi and Hino decided to go tea shopping together.
When Adachi offered to buy Hino tea as a thank you for hanging out with him, Hino said this with a smile. Adachi, who opened up to Shimamura, is gradually starting to communicate with other people.
One more hurdle has been added, but it's okay to hold hands again next time
Adachi and Shimamura spend Christmas together. Adachi holds Shimamura's hand almost forcibly, but Shimamura scolds him lightly. Adachi still wants to hold hands, but Shimamura gently holds his hand, saying, "Well, it's okay."
Adachi is told to ask in advance next time, and he says, "Okay, I'll listen carefully." He's like an obedient pet (lol)
The hurdle of asking if it's okay to hold hands has been added, but Adachi is happy that it's okay to hold hands again next time.
To continue to be together
Adachi loved spending time with Shimamura on the second floor of the gym. When asked, "Will you two go to the second floor of the gym again when spring comes in your second year?" Adachi says that he wants to spend time with Shimamura again, but he can't keep skipping forever and wants to advance and graduate with Shimamura. And above all, he understands that Shimamura wants that, so he tells him that he will attend class properly and play with him after school. It's a statement that you wouldn't imagine coming from Adachi, who used to be shy and skipped classes.
I think that meeting Shimamura helped Adachi grow a lot. However, after this, the crisis of class change threatened Adachi.
In such a crowd?! Adachi is very bold
Shimamura won a campaign to post a message on the electronic bulletin board, and on the day the message was to appear, he took Adachi to the bulletin board.
When Shimamura said that he thought of Adachi when sending the message "Let's continue to be friends! Shimamura Hogetsu," Adachi was so moved that he hugged Shimamura without caring about what other people thought.
These are great words from Adachi, who wants to be special to Shimamura. However, he is later scolded for suddenly hugging Shimamura. And the reason he wanted to hug him was because it was warm... There could have been more to say (lol)
"Let's get warm, Shimamura!" "Hmm... Oh well, come on!" This exchange is a wonderful scene that shows that Adachi and Shimamura have always wanted to be good friends, and will continue to be so in the future.
What will happen to Adachi who prayed to God?
Adachi started attending classes properly and successfully advanced to the second year, but his head was filled with anxiety about whether he would be able to be in the same class as Shimamura.
Shimamura doesn't need Adachi that much, and although he won't refuse if he goes to see him, Adachi doesn't think Shimamura will actively come to see him.
If they were in different classes, their relationship might become even more one-sided than it is now. While praying to God, he saw the class list with Adachi and Shimamura's names.
He can spend today, tomorrow, and the day after with Shimamura. Adachi was the happiest she had ever been.
What kind of person is Adachi, who thinks of Shimamura? We'll also introduce the changes in her feelings! Summary
What did you think?
At first, Adachi seems beautiful and cool, but after meeting Shimamura and spending time with him, her heart changes greatly.
Although she can be a bit over the top, I think Adachi is a very charming character because she is pure, honest, kind, and a little bit foolish.
The pictures in "Adachi and Shimamura" are beautiful, and the content is not too deep, so even people who are not into yuri works should find it easy to watch.
