Plain, boring, and friendless Nukumizu Kazuhiko has witnessed something completely baffling: popular girl Yanami Anna was friend-zoned by her childhood friend and crush! In fact, all the popular girls around him are getting similarly rejected by the boys they like. Without realizing it, Kazuhiko becomes entangled in the relationship drama where all the leading heroines are losing out on love! Can he keep their spirits up and help them find happiness?
Amamori released the first volume of the novel series in July 2021 under Shogakukan's Gagaga Bunko light novel label, with illustrations by Imigimuru. The sixth novel shipped on December 18. The novel won the 15th Shogakukan Light Novel Award in 2020.
Itachi launched a manga adaptation of the novels titled Make Heroine ga Ooisugiru! @comic in Shogakukan's Manga ONE service in April 2022. Shogakukan published the manga's second compiled book volume on August 18.
Update: Kazuhiko's spelling corrected. Thanks, Rob19ny.
