Tsuki ga Kirei is a gentle and realistic romance anime that focuses on the quiet emotions of first love. The story follows Kotaro Azumi, a shy middle school boy who enjoys reading and dreams of becoming a novelist, and Akane Mizuno, a calm and hardworking girl who is passionate about track and field.
