Cute, easy-to-watch bls set in high school where a popular guy likes the shy, friendless boy from his class and loves being affectionate and showing attention to him.
Watarai invites Hioki to join him and his group on a school trip, they eventually become friends and grow closer even after the trip.
Serizawa finds Suzuki´s bl novel based off of him and begs him to let him read it while simultaniously swearing to become the best seme.
While I´m writing this, Popular Serizawa is still airing but i had to mention it because the vibe is very similiar and I love both of them so much.
(P.S. "After moving seats, the boy behind me has a crush on me" also has a similar vibe and setting and is also definitely worth checking out if you liked those two.)

After Moving Seats, the Boy Behind Me Has a Crush on Me is similar to Popular Serizawa Acts Weird around Me. A change in situation happens in the class and is the beginning point of the crush and the way that closeness leads to nervousness and indirect attempts to show interest.
In both titles—the “cool/popular” guy acts strangely around a less popular seemingly quieter boy signaling something emotional without immediately stating it.
Both are essentially “special treatment / odd behavior from a popular guy who’s clearly affected by the less popular boy with the romance revealed through behavior rather than direct confession. The difference is that one starts with forced proximity from a seating change, while the other starts with a found notebook causing out-of-character behavior.
