“Koi no Yukue” is Akari Akase’s debut solo single that came out earlier this year.

She is best known for her stints as a cosplayer and gravure idol; she appeared in Shueisha’s Weekly Playboy magazine in March 2020. Akase also maintains a YouTube and TikTok account, where she regularly posts videos and hosts live streams regarding her cosplay work.
My Dress-Up Darling anime was directed by Keisuke Shinohara, and written by Yoriko Tomita. The anime was based on the original manga series written and illustrated by Shinichi Fukuda. It has been serialized on Square Enix’s Young Gangan in January 2018.
Crunchyroll is streaming the anime, describing the plot as:
Wakana Gojo is a high school boy who wants to become a kashirashi–a master craftsman who makes traditional Japanese Hina dolls. Though he’s gung-ho about the craft, he knows nothing about the latest trends, and has a hard time fitting in with his class. The popular kids–especially one girl, Marin Kitagawa–seem like they live in a completely different world. That all changes one day, when she shares an unexpected secret with him, and their completely different worlds collide.
