Sophisticated high school freshman Sakamoto is not just popular, he is perfection personified. From the very first day of school, his superhuman agility, immaculate grooming, and aristocratic poise attract every girl on campus while driving resentful male delinquents and jealous teachers to absolute fury. Yet every malicious prank cooked up against him, from concealed chalk dusters to rigged desk chairs, backfires spectacularly. Sakamoto dodges every hazard with breathtaking elegance, turning childish bullying attempts into dazzling martial displays of goodwill. Without uttering a single boast, he quietly transforms his envious classmates into devoted friends.
