As you can see below, the trailer for Honey Lemon Soda is nothing short of gorgeous. The reel brings Uka Ishimori to life as the young girl prepares to take on high school. Known for being an introvert, Uka wants to broaden her horizons in high school, but she struggles to do so alone.

"Uka Ishimori has one dream in life: to have fun in high school! As a self-avowed dense, stone-faced introvert who spent all of middle school hardening her heart against a daily barrage of bullying, breaking out of her shell is easier said than done. Luckily, she's not alone―Kai Miura, a classmate whose blond hair reminds her of the lemon soda he so enjoys, has her back. Step by step, she endeavors to cast off the shadows of her past and reinvigorate her life!"
