“2.5-Jigen no Ririsa” introduces us to Masamune Okumura, a student who proudly proclaims his disinterest in real girls. As the president of his school’s manga club, Okumura is a passionate otaku, whose heart belongs entirely to a sensual 2D manga waifu known as Lilliel.
But what happens when fate plays an unexpected card? With the start of a new school year, the landscape changes dramatically. Enter Ririsa (also known as Lilysa), a flesh-and-blood girl who lives in the 3D world, and her burning passion is the art of cosplay! Determined and full of enthusiasm, Ririsa has one goal in mind: to recruit Okumura as her personal photographer.
However, this is where the plot thickens and the lines between fantasy and reality begin to blur. Can you imagine who Ririsa’s favorite manga character is? Yes, it’s none other than Lilliel! And that’s not all, Ririsa has an affinity for modeling objects of a fetishistic nature. As this romantic comedy unfolds, the contrasts between the two-dimensional and three-dimensional world become blurred, generating hilarious situations and moments full of emotional tension.
