What is the plot of The Fragrant Flower Blooms with Dignity?

Netflix’s plot synopsis presents the intense rivalry between Chidori High School for Boys and its adjacent Kikyo Girls’ High School, with the narrative focusing on this competition.

On one particular day, Rintaro Tsumugi, a compassionate yet intimidating sophomore at Chidori, finds himself working at the family bakery. It is here that he encounters a customer named Kaoruko Waguri. Rintaro values their conversations, as she doesn’t form her opinions about him based on his appearance.

Yet, this peaceful bond is suddenly disrupted when Rintaro learns that Kaoruko attends the same school as Kikyo.

This disclosure paves the way for a difficult voyage, as they persistently work against the obstacles set by their educational institutions and surroundings, aiming to create their unique route forward.
