Viola, Who Was inside You

Overview

Minato enters university struggling to fit in, uncomfortable around other people and unable to find a place where he truly belongs. However, he catches the attention of Haru, the head of the drama club, who casts him as Viola, the lead role in the stage production of Twelfth Night. Though confused about playing a heroine in women's clothing despite being male, Minato gradually finds himself drawn to Haru through their rehearsals together. But his insecurities, anxieties about gender, and the presence of Haru's former lover, Kaede, stand in the way, causing Minato to suppress his true feelings. Then, after losing a keepsake left behind by his late mother, Minato becomes involved in an accident. Though he considers stepping down from the lead role, he ultimately chooses his desire to "perform alongside Haru," and the two stand together on the stage for opening night.
