- Futa Kinashi is a single, average salaryman who has always had terrible luck with women. After being set up and cheated by two girls, he looks for help from a marriage arrangement agency. At a party held by the agency, he meets a strange girl wearing sunglasses and a mask asking him for a date. Accepting her explanation that she's painfully shy, Fuuta decides to go through with the date as planned. Slowly he finds himself falling for this mystery girl's sweet and shy demeanor, despite the fact that she insists on wearing a different disguise each time they meet. Ultimately deciding that her looks don't matter, the two of them get married. On their first night together, she finally removes her mask and reveals her true identity: Kirari, a beautiful and famous pop idol (and Futa is her biggest fan), who has a secret wish: to get married with a man who doesn't love her beauty, money, or fame—but her true self (which is why she hid her face). Unfortunately, there is a catch: the marriage must be kept secret from the world for one full year in order for Kirari's record company to accept it... and if anyone discovers their relationship before then, they will be forced to get a divorce. Fuuta decides that no price is too high to pay for true love, and so the newlyweds swear that they will do whatever it takes to stay together.
