Summary
The declining birth rate in Japan has led to a significant decrease in the sparkly innocence of human children, a vital energy source for the magical world. With businesses closing due to the shortage, a resolution is passed: a lasting romance will be created for humans who prioritize their hobbies or careers over falling in love.Before this policy is enforced nationwide, the magical fairy Riri selects high school student Anzu Hoshino as a preliminary test subject. Primarily preoccupied with her video games, beloved pet cat, and her obsession with chocolate, Anzu is the perfect candidate. Unfortunately for Riri, Anzu is vehemently against this idea and actively works to thwart the magical world’s vain attempts at forcing her into a romance.
Even with her distractions confiscated, Anzu stubbornly tries to evade her new predetermined fate, only for it to backfire when she collides with Tsukasa Kazuki, a hot guy from her school. Now unable to avoid the boy she had not even noticed before, Anzu wonders if her sabotage tactics will prove to be futile.

Summary
Anzu Hoshino needs only three things in her life: video games, chocolate, and her beloved cat. Unlike other high school girls, Anzu has no time for or interest in romance. But as she begins playing a poorly programmed 3D otome game, a bizarre flying wizard named Riri emerges from the screen and calls Anzu "subject one," the first person who will experience a dating game harem storyline in real life.Despite Anzu’s fiery protests, Riri confiscates her favorite things to force her to focus on love. Riri orchestrates a series of unlucky incidents and romantic cliches that lead her to meet Tsukasa Kazuki, one of the most attractive boys in her school. Still enraged, Anzu is adamant about resisting Tsukasa’s charm. As all the ridiculous fabricated scenarios help Anzu warm up to Tsukasa’s pleasant nature, Riri throws other stereotypical pretty boys her way—and avoiding romance quickly becomes almost impossible.
