Sono Bisque Doll wa Koi wo Suru Synopsis
Engrossed in the family business of traditional doll making, Wakana Gojou is a reserved first-year high school student with no friends. With the painful memory of a childhood friend's disregard for his interest, Gojou is unable to relate to his classmates and hobbies, leading to isolation. Gojou has not yet perfected the making of the dolls' faces, but he is exceptionally skilled at making their clothes. Her skill with the sewing machine is soon discovered by her beautiful partner Marin Kitagawa, whose boldness and honesty Gojou both admires and envies. He instantly shares his own hobby with Gojou: he likes to dress up as erotic video game characters.
However, Kitagawa does not know how to sew her own suits, which leads her to seek Gojou's expertise. Being drawn into the charming girl's endless adventures related to cosplay, Kitagawa becomes her first friend who fully accepts her. Thus, although they are polar opposites, their relationship slowly flourishes thanks to their ability to help each other in the intricate world of cosplay.
