Rich Girl Caretaker

Itsuki Tomonari walks into Meimon Academy as a student from a poor background, but he finds himself trapped in a secret role that defies his social standing. The school's most popular girl, Hinako Konohana, projects an image of perfection to everyone around her. She has impeccable manners and top grades, yet she cannot tie her own shoes or cook a meal. Itsuki agrees to manage her domestic life in total secrecy, creating a chaotic dynamic where the elite heiress relies on a commoner to survive daily tasks.

The series started as a web novel on Shōsetsuka ni Narō before Hobby Japan picked it up for print under their HJ Bunko imprint. Sakura Miwabe provided the artwork for the volumes that began releasing in May 2021. Readers appreciate the contrast between Hinako's public elegance and her private incompetence, calling it a refreshing take on the rich kid trope because the focus stays on Itsuki's struggle to keep the secret while helping her improve.
