Introduction of Characters
Mira: A quirky high school girl who loves otome games but feels like an extra in her own life. Her ultimate dream is to become the heroine of her own story, where she can fight for love and adventure. However, she's always been seen as a “mob” character—someone who has little to no impact on the overall plot.
Kaito: The dashing but brooding prince of the game world, torn between duty and love. He yearns for freedom from the constraints of his royal expectations and is intrigued by the odd girl who refuses to follow the script.
Sera: Mira's best friend and fellow otome game enthusiast. She is bubbly, always the “true heroine” in her own life, and serves as a contrast to Mira's self-doubt.
