Gal to Tsuchinoko

A high school girl pretends to be a Tsuchinoko after meeting a boy who is deeply fond of them. The girl, normally a Tsuchinoko, takes on the guise of a human to play along with the boy's mistaken belief. She is drawn in by his genuine excitement and passion. The boy, an ordinary student, remains unaware of her true identity and continues to interact with her under the assumption that she is a real Tsuchinoko. The girl maintains the charade, enjoying the boy's enthusiasm and the attention it brings. Their dynamic centers around this deception and the boy's unwavering admiration for Tsuchinoko.
