It tells the story of Kuronuma Sawako, a nice and innocent high school girl who has been a social outcast for the majority of her life because of her resemblance to the horror movie character Sadako. Sawako wants to be able to make friends but her social awkwardness leads people to misunderstand her and solidifies her classmates' mistaken perception of her as the creepy ghost girl of the school. Things start to look up for Sawako when she meets Kazehaya Shouta, the most popular guy in school and a nice boy, the first person to take an interest in Sawako and see Sawako for who she really is. He gives the shy and insecure girl the courage to open up more, befriend her classmates, and clear up the numerous misunderstandings surrounding her.
