Tsukimi Kurashita has loved jellyfish from a young age. She resides in Amamizukan, a fangirl only-dorm. One evening, at the local pet store, Tsukimi sees a lovely jellyfish in danger! Thankfully, a beautiful – and, most frighteningly, “stylish” – woman comes to the rescue.

LONG DISTANCES

In order to save Amamizukan, the girls decide to put up an exhibition of their work. When the Jelly Fish dresses catch the eye of Asia’s greatest fashion influencer, Kai, it’s not only the dresses that the mogul wants—it’s the designer herself. Tsukimi and the gang are about to get the massive break they need, but at what price…? Afraid that he may lose Tsukimi, Kuranosuke must come to terms with what his true purpose for starting Jelly Fish once was. Meanwhile, Shu learns of the heartbreaking history of Kuranosuke’s mother, while Chieko’s mother makes a discovery that seals the fate of Amamizukan…

As if Tsukimi weren’t already overwhelmed, Shu makes it clear that he’s ready to make a romantic commitment to her. For a geek girl who’s never even had a boyfriend, these advances may be too much to handle. And Tsukimi isn’t the only one struggling—with his brother’s feelings out in the open, Kuranosuke must figure out how he fits into Tsukimi’s life.
