***Warning, the following may contain spoilers for Karakai Jouzu no Takagi-san. Reader discretion is advised.***
First-year middle schooler Nishikada (voiced by Yuki Kaji) has a bit of a problem. He has run into someone who he cannot beat no matter how hard he tries. In fact, the more he fights back, the more likely he will end up looking like a fool.
Nishikada is at the mercy of the master teaser, his classmate, Takagi (voiced by Rie Takahashi).
Unbeknownst to Nishikada, Takagi has a crush on him. Driven by her strong romantic feelings, Takagi loves making Nishikada’s adorable face turn red. For Nishikada, this makes the days just a little bit longer and all kinds of frustrating.
Except, despite not being a fan of the constant teasing, Nishikada has formed a close relationship with Takagi, and the two are almost inseparable. Nishikada would claim this is because he is looking for the opportunity to get his revenge. But if you look at it another way, perhaps Nishikada has feelings of his own that even he isn’t aware of.
Whatever the case may be, Nishikada is always one slip of the tongue away from receiving the full brunt of Takagi’s playful roasting.
