"Handpicked girls. As much as Kiri tries to shy away from the Scissors Project spotlight, she finds herself responding to beauty's call. Tsuyoshi Niida, having taken second place to Narumi's hairstyling once again, is determined to come out on top against the Scissors Project. He issues a challenge, but the Scissors Project needs five people to compete in this beauty battle or they'll lose by default. Narumi needs Kiri's help-- but is his desire to win stronger than his pride?"--Cover [p. 4].
