Hime is a picture-perfect high school princess—she's admired by all and never trips up!

However, under the guidance of the most graceful girl there, Hime can't help but blush and blunder! Beneath all the frills and laughter, Hime feels tension brewing as she finds out more about her new job and her budding feelings…

The manga has been well-received, with 13 volumes published in Japan as of January 2024, and the 13th volume was released in English by Kodansha USA Publishing on January 7.
