Summary of Kubo-san wa Mob wo Yurusanai

High school student Junta Shiraishi has a simple goal: to have a fulfilling youth. Achieving this goal seems harder than expected, however, as everyone around him often takes no notice of him due to his lack of presence. In fact, Shiraishi's lack of presence is so severe that people believe his seat in class is always empty, wrongly assuming that he often misses class. There's even a strange rumor going around the class that those who manage to see Shiraishi will be blessed with good luck that day.

So far the only person to notice his existence is Nagisa Kubo, the girl sitting next to him. Unfortunately, Kubo enjoys making fun of him on a daily basis, often putting him in unusual and upsetting situations. However, as Kubo's antics continue to involve the reluctant Shiraishi, he may soon find that his youth may not be as boring as he originally thought.
