Synopsis of Honey Lemon Soda
For 15-year-old Uka Ishimori, high school was the hardest experience he ever had. She was nicknamed “Stone” because she always froze in front of others and, as a consequence, she suffered constant harassment. Now, in high school, she has the opportunity to start from scratch and improve. But during her first week, she is accidentally soaked in juice by her classmate Kai Miura, a striking boy with lemon-colored hair.
On paper, Kai is everything Uka lacks: he’s popular, aloof, and dares to speak his mind. Despite her opposite personalities, Kai encourages her to slowly come out of her shell, offering her a helping hand when others avoid doing so. Although at first Uka wanted to forge friendships, she has realized her true feelings: she has fallen in love with Kai. What started with a lemon soda is about to change Uka and Kai’s lives forever.
