Welcome to Storyflix.
In this video, we will explain Kiss Him Not Me.
This movie tells the story of a female otaku who loves reading yaoi and imagining men together
in romantic relationships, both fictional and real.
One day, she turned skinny due
to stress until she became a bone of contention for 4 handsome boys at her school.
Now she has to choose which of them deserves to be her boyfriend.
Will she find true love who truly loves her for who she is? Let's find out in Kiss Him Not Me.
Kiss Him Not Me begins by showing two handsome young men wearing medieval European aristocratic clothes.
The two of them seemed to be engaged in quite an intense conversation.
But as it turned out,
all of that was just the wishful thinking of a second-year high school girl named Kae Serinuma.
Kae is a female fan of manga or anime that features romantic relationships between men,
which is also known as fujoshi in Japan.
Kae becomes excited over the sight of two boys together in a bus.
Even though the two young men were just joking around like close friends.
However, Kae, who is very fond of the romance that occurs between men,
seems so happy to see the closeness of the two young men, to the point of imagining that they
are dressed in medieval European aristocratic clothes and have a fairly intense relationship.
Arriving at school, Kae still noticed the two young men who were on the bus with her,
both of whom were her classmates.
The black-haired youth is Yusuke Igarashi, part of the soccer club.
Kae described the young man as 'the boy next door' or a typical approachable and reliable young man.
While the blonde named Nozomu Nanashima is categorized as a 'bad boy' type and resembles
Shion, Kae's favorite anime character.
When she was about to go to her class, Kae was greeted by her senior,
a young man named Asuma Mutsumi.
Asuma and Kae are part of the history club.
Seeing Asuma smiling at her, Kae thought that he was a typical dominant and aggressive young man.
Because she fantasized too much about Asuma, Kae didn't pay attention to her steps and collided
with a handsome young man named Hayato Shinomiya, a first-year student and health committee member.
Hayato has an efficient appearance, prone to blushing and getting flustered, and is
often characterized as a tsundere.
Even though Kae imagined Hayato as a typical submissive young man,
it was the complete opposite of Asuma.
One time, Kae and her friend, Amane,
watched a basketball match at the school gym and instead imagined the closeness of the students
who took part in the match while comparing them to their favorite male characters in the anime.
That night, Kae was in her room to watch her favorite anime series, Mirage Saga,
where she really liked Shion's character in the anime.
However, she was surprised when she
found out that Shion was declared dead in this episode.
Shion's death in the anime immediately made her feel depressed.
She is so shocked that she locks herself in her room for a whole week.
Kae didn't even touch the food her mother brought.
Worrying about Kae's condition,
her mother then asked Takeru, Kae's older brother,
to wake up and persuade Kae to leave the room. Takeru
finally broke down the door to Kae's room, and how surprised he was when he saw his younger sister's
condition, who looked very different because of her drastic weight loss. Not only Takeru,
Kae doesn't even recognize herself when she looks in the mirror and realizes that now she has become
thin and instead looks very dank due to depression and hunger strike for a whole week. The next day,
at school, everyone didn't recognize Kae because she had lost a lot of weight and looked prettier.
When she entered the class, her classmates were very surprised to find out that the beautiful
girl who had just arrived was Kae Serinuma, a fat fujoshi. Kae, who was frustrated because everyone
was always staring at her and no one believed that she was Kae Serinuma the fat fujoshi, then ran out
of the classroom, where she was then approached by four handsome boys at her school, who were
none other than Asuma, Yusuke , Nozomu and also Hayato, who then asked her out. Immediately, Kae
was shocked because she had imagined the four of them in her fantasy as fujoshi a few days before.
Unable to refuse the four handsome boys on a date, Kae decides to go on a date with the four of them
at once. Long story short, Kae and the boys then went on a date together, where the four young men
became the center of attention of women because of their good looks. While out for a walk, Kae passed
a shop selling anime merchandise. Kae tries to resist the temptation to enter the store and spend
her money on anime merchandise because she doesn't want the four guys who asked her out to think that
she is an otaku freak. But because Kae had a hard time resisting the urge to enter the merchandise
shop, she began to act strangely so that it even aroused the suspicions of the four handsome boys
who were dating her. Kae finally gave in to her passion, where she then ran into the shop and
bought her favorite anime character merchandise. She then exits the shop and reveals to the four
handsome boys that she is an otaku. Amane asked Kae about her date with the four handsome boys
the next day. Kae then told everything to her best friend. When the two of them were chatting,
suddenly they were approached by a group of students who were members of the theater club.
One of them, a student named Sakashita, asks Kae to be the female lead in a school play.
Kae enthusiastically agreed to the request. During the rehearsal for the drama performance,
Kae was accompanied by Yusuke, Nozomu, and Hayato. Too eager to practice to appear in a drama stage,
Kae neglects her health and practices in the rain. Asuma then came and persuaded Kae to rest for a
while. Kae went inside and dried herself. Asuma then checked Kae's temperature by pressing her
forehead on her forehead and said that she had a fever and took her home. At home, her mother
told Kae that her classmates came to visit when she was lying sick and brought cakes for her so
that she would get well soon. After being sick at home after a week, Kae became fat again from
overeating. Her classmates as well as Hayato seemed surprised by Kae's change in being fat.
Yusuke, Nozomu and Hayato had thought to stop chasing Kae because she was now fat. But Asuma
seemed normal and didn't mind it. Nozomu then has an idea to train Kae's physique
so that her body is back to thin and beautiful as before. But Asuma disagreed with the idea,
because he felt sorry for Kae if she was forced to do strenuous exercise just to be thin.
Although now fat, Kae still continues to practice for school plays. But then,
the supervising teacher of the theater club seemed dissatisfied with her chubby appearance and
decided to replace her. Hearing this, Kae became sad and frustrated so she decided to lose weight.
Nozomu and Hayato seemed enthusiastic about accompanying Kae during weight loss training
and encouraging her to return to being thin and beautiful as before. Seeing Kae training too hard,
Nozomu gradually became sorry for her and asked Kae to just stop. However, Kae refuses and is
determined to lose weight to get her role back. Amane then advised Nozomu and Hayato to bromance
with each other so that Kae, who is a fujoshi, would be more enthusiastic about her practice.
Nozomu and Hayato also followed Amane's advice. Even Yusuke also did so to make Kae more excited.
Seeing this, Kae became very excited and managed to lose weight in a short time. Kae then thanked
Nozomu, Hayato, Yusuke, and Asuma, who had always supported and accompanied her. Not long after,
Nozomu and Kae were in the classroom alone, where Nozomu later confessed his love for Kae.
Suddenly Kae was surprised by Nozomu's confession. It didn't stop there. Kae was surprised by Yusuke
who also expressed his love for her. Likewise with Hayato and Asuma. Kae also felt very confused
because four handsome young men confessed their love to her almost the same time.
Therefore, Kae then asked Nozomu, Yusuke, Hayato, and Asuma to come to the school roof, where she
planned to give the four of them a riddle and whoever guessed the right answer would be her
boyfriend. However, if no one managed to answer it, then she wouldn't be dating either of them.
Nozomu, Yusuke, Hayato and Asuma could each give the same number of correct answers.
Until the last question, Kae asked them to correctly guess what she was thinking right now.
In this last question, Asuma was the one who came out as the winner, so he was entitled to
be Kae's boyfriend. After school, when they were walking alone, Asuma pointed out that Kae had lied
when she said he answered the last question correctly. Asuma then thought that Kae chose
him because she felt bad. Hearing this, Kae then apologized to Asuma because what he said was true.
Kae looked sad and felt guilty for lying to Asuma, but he didn't mind it because Asuma actually
really loved Kae, even before Kae lost her weight. Although Asuma looks more laid back and less
competitive than the other boys, he can become aggressive when someone picks on Kae. Asuma is
also very open-minded and doesn't seem to notice nor mind any of Kae's fujoshi eccentricities.
Sometime later, Kae and the others then watched Yusuke, who was training for a drama performance,
where he turned out to be playing a prince. However, an incident caused the female lead
to be disqualified from staging the drama. Sakashita then went to Kae and asked her to
return to the role in the upcoming play. But Kae then refused his request and suggested
that they appoint Nozomu to replace the female lead and become Yusuke's partner in the drama,
which Kae deliberately proposed to satisfy her almost unstoppable fujoshi desire.
Unexpectedly, the theater club welcomed Kae's proposal and finally paired Nozomu and Yusuke
in a school play performance, where the two handsome boys then made a romantic scene on stage.
Meanwhile, Kae and Amane, who are fujoshi, watched the drama performance and were very excited to see
Yusuke and Nozomu doing romantic scenes like their favorite anime characters and the film ended.
The moral of this film is to always be yourself, even though you are an otaku.
Because by being ourselves, we will meet people who accept and love us as we are.
