A Star Brighter than the Sun - S01

Sae Iwata was never cute or dainty like the other girls, and because of her build and strength, she always felt she had to look after her delicate childhood friend and crush, Kouki Kamishiro. But as the years went by, Kouki grew taller and more confident, and the two of them drifted apart. Near the end of middle school, Sae reconnects with Kouki. Seeing that he is still the sweet boy she once knew, she realizes her dormant feelings for him have come back. She tries her best to hold her emotions in, but it gets even harder when they end up in the same class in high school. Ignoring her deepening feelings may seem like a fool's errand, but this boy who shines brighter than the sun may just turn out to be her destiny.
