Hated by everyone around him, Sei Handa goes about his high
school life regarded as an outcast—or at least that's what
he believes. In reality, Sei is the most popular student on
campus, revered by all for his incomparable calligraphy
skills, good looks, and cool personality. However, due an
endless series of misunderstandings, Handa perceives the
worship he receives from his legions of fans as bullying,
leading the school's idol to shut himself off from the rest
of his classmates.
But distancing himself from his peers doesn't deter them
from adoring him; in fact, his attempts at drawing attention
away from himself often end up unintentionally converting
even the most skeptical of students into believers. Fashion
models, shut-in delinquents, obsessive fangirls, and
more—none can stand against the brilliance that is Sei
Handa.

~~~_Handsome teenage calligrapher Sei Handa is worshiped by
all his classmates as an aloof superstar–too bad Sei’s
inherent negativity and neurotic personality make him
believe that everyone actually hates him._~~~ A comedy of
errors! It’s so ridiculous, but it _knows_ it’s being
ridiculous, I cannot help but love it! The entire series
derives humor from: 1. everyone is impressed by Handa-kun!
He’s a notable calligrapher! And handsome! And polite! No
matter who you are, you have reasons to believe that
Handa-kun is the best at whatever you do–whether you’re the
class rep who enjoys class repping, or a thug who likes
fighting, etc. 2. Handa, due to an old prank by a friend,
believes that _everyone hates his guts_ and interprets
literally everything through that lens. He gets nominated to
be class rep? _Obviously because no one wants to do it so
they’ll foist it on him._ He gets pushed out of the
classroom after school? Sure, they _said_ it’s so he can go
focus on his calligraphy, but clearly it’s because _they
hate being around him!_
