The anime Makeine: Too Many Losing Heroines! has the following description: Despite not understanding much about fleeting teenage romances, Kazuhiko Nukumizu, a high school freshman, keeps wondering how he would react if his life turned into a love story. Regardless, as a self-proclaimed “background character,” Nukumizu is content to continue his life as an introvert with a negligible social life.

However, he suddenly finds himself too close to the spotlight when he witnesses his popular classmate Anna Yanami being rejected by her childhood friend in the middle of a family restaurant. Although Nukumizu wishes he could forget what he has seen and move on, Anna ends up forcibly confiding in Nukumizu, regretting her status as a childhood friend doomed to be robbed of her beloved.

Being drawn into Anna’s situation, Nukumizu soon becomes embroiled in the sentimental drama of two other girls: Lemon Yakishio, an extroverted member of the athletic club, and Chika Komari, a shy member of the literature club. Nukumizu steps out of her comfort zone and becomes an important character in the lives of too many loser heroines.
