Engrossed in the family business of traditional doll making, Wakana Gojou is a reserved high school freshman with no friends. With the painful memory of a childhood friend's contempt for his interest, Gojou is unable to relate to his classmates and his hobbies, so he ends up isolating himself. Gojou hasn't yet perfected the crafting of the doll's faces, but he is exceptionally skilled at making his own clothes. His skill with the sewing machine is soon discovered by his beautiful partner Marin Kitagawa, whose boldness and honesty Gojou admires and envies.

However, Kitagawa does not know how to sew her own costumes, which leads her to seek Gojou's expertise. Being drawn into the lovely girl's endless adventures related to cosplay, Ella Kitagawa becomes the first friend of hers who fully accepts him. Thus, although they are polar opposites, their relationship slowly blossoms thanks to her ability to help each other in the intricate world of cosplay.
