Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun Mitsue Yamazaki

Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun contains episodes 1-12 of the anime directed by Mitsue Yamazaki. A funny thing happened when Chiyo Sakura worked up the courage to confess her feelings to her high school crush: he thought she was applying for a job as his art assistant! Because, unbeknownst to Chiyo, Nozaki secretly creates manga under a feminine pen name, and he's badly in need of help! This is certainly not what Chiyo had hoped would happen but, since it's at least a chance to get to know him better, she accepts. And then everything goes sideways when her new boss realizes that he can use his "really a girl" assistant to "research" how girls think and what they find romantic! Can an increasingly frustrated Chiyo pretend to be professional while a clueless Nozaki has all her buttons pushed in the right way for the wrong reasons?
