The manga is serialized in Square Enix’s Young Gangan, and SE is also publishing it in English. The anime adaptation is produced by CloverWorks, with Crunchyroll streaming it. They describe the story:
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.
It’s not unusual for an anime adaptation to 2.
