Specially formed musical unit of Shiraishi, Tomita, and Suzushiro, Study, perform the opening theme “ready STUDY go!”
About We Never Learn: BOKUBEN:
Nariyuki Yuiga is in his last and most painful year of high school. In order to gain the “special VIP recommendation” which would grant him a full scholarship to college, he must now tutor his classmates as they struggle to prepare for entrance exams.
Among his pupils are “the sleeping beauty of the literary forest,” Fumino Furuhashi, and “the Thumbelina supercomputer,” Rizu Ogata–two of the most beautiful super-geniuses at the school!
While these two were thought to be academically flawless, it turns out that they're completely clueless outside of their pet subjects…!?
As Nariyuki's life is turned upside down by these quirky girls who just never learn, he must do everything he can to get them accepted into college!
The stage is set for this romantic comedy featuring prodigies who never learn when it comes to studying and love!
