Synopsis of ‘Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings in Russian‘:

Alisa Mikhailovna Kujou is the “lonely princess” of Seiren Private Academy. She is a half-Russian beauty with gray hair, the top student in class, and the student council accountant—completely unapproachable. For some reason, she has also taken on the responsibility of reprimanding the lazy boy who sits next to her in class. Masachika Kuze constantly frustrates her by falling asleep, forgetting his textbooks, and being anything but an exemplary student. Or at least, that’s how it seems on the outside.

She may pretend to be tough, but she doesn’t mind Masachika as much as others think. She even lets him call her by the nickname, Alya. Anyone who hears the comments she murmurs in Russian quietly can understand how she really feels, but since none of her classmates understand the language, she is free to say whatever she wants! Except… there is one person who knows what she’s saying. Masachika listens to her embarrassing revelations, pretending not to be aware, and wondering what her flirtatious comments really mean!
