Description
Serufu Yua is a first-year student at Gatagata Girls' High School known for her perpetually laid-back attitude and accident-prone tendencies. Her frequent injuries result in multiple bandages, typically covering her nose, chin, and knees, and secure her perfect attendance at the school nurse's office. Though airheaded and easily distracted, she maintains a consistently positive, kind demeanor, showing little distress over minor mishaps like untucked shirts or disrupted sleep.
Raised in a relaxed household with an equally easygoing mother, she lives with several pets: a dog named Pochi, a cat called Tama, and a pig known as Meat, who reacts anxiously whenever Serufu eats pork. Her mother restricts her access to power tools due to past crafting accidents, leading Serufu to channel her creativity into drawing—a hobby where she displays notable talent, often sketching during class. Despite her apparent inattentiveness, she achieves high academic performance, ranking third in her mid-term exams.
A rift defines her relationship with childhood friend Miku Suride ("Purin"). Both applied to the elite Yuyu Girls' Vocational High School, but Serufu failed the entrance exam. While Miku now attends Yuyu—focused on advanced technology like 3D printing—Serufu enrolled at Gatagata, straining their bond. Miku often responds with tsundere behavior toward her.
Serufu's development begins when Rei Yasaku, president of Gatagata's DIY Club, repairs her bicycle. Learning the club faces dissolution without five members, she joins officially. Through hands-on projects like building benches, crafting mosaics, and constructing a treehouse, she hones her initially clumsy craftsmanship under Rei's guidance. The club also bridges her reconciliation with Miku, who later collaborates on projects despite attending a different school.
Her relationships expand to include classmate Takumi Hikage, recruited into the DIY Club, and Juliet Queen Elizabeth VIII ("Jobko"), a 12-year-old American prodigy who mistakenly transfers to Gatagata. Serufu helps Jobko overcome loneliness through DIY activities, discovering Jobko's late mother shared this passion. She also interacts with Kokoro Kōki ("Shii"), an external member from Yuyu, and the club's advisor, Haruko Hoketsu, a Gatagata alumna.
Subtle narrative elements hint at deeper layers, particularly with Miku. Flashbacks depict their childhood crafting attempts, and scenes like hand-holding in the series' opening and ending sequences suggest romantic subtext to some viewers, though explicit developments remain ambiguous.
Her arc concludes as the DIY Club successfully builds the treehouse, symbolizing her growth in practical skills and the restoration of her friendship with Miku. Jobko returns to America, but the club secures its future through sustained interest from new members.
