The anime is based on the popular romcom novel series written by SunSunSun and illustrated by Momoco. A manga adaptation by Saho Tenamachi has also been serialised. Crunchyroll streams the first season of the anime and describes the story as:
Alya is a transfer student enjoying popularity at her new high school, often sporting a cold shoulder while earning high marks in class. She ignores her nerdy classmate, Kuze Masachika, except for when she blurts out a flirtatious line to him in Russian. Little does she know, Kuze understands Russian, though he pretends not to. Let’s see where this wacky love story takes them!
