Umi Asanagi 💞 #anime #animeshorts #romcom

???? Umi Asanagi is only the "second prettiest" girl, but she's number one for Maki. Playful, teasing, and always a little too good at making him smile, Umi turns a quiet loner's school life upside down. Manaka Iwami gives her a bright, teasing voice that hides a softer, more insecure side. Second in rank, first in his heart. Is Umi your favorite heroine of 2026?
