Wakana Gojo and Marin Kitagawa are meeting Shinju Inui, who clicks all of Sajuna Inui's photos.

"My Dress-Up Darling" Episode 8 will show Wakana and Marin meeting Shinju for the first time. Wakana is intrigued by how well Sajuna's photos look.

Sajuna suggests they should scout for a new location for their shoot. After looking for a place, they settle for an abandoned hospital.

In the previous episode, titled "A Home Date with the Guy I Wuv Is the Best," Marin expressed her desire to do a group cosplay with Sajuna.

However, Sajuna was not interested and she even told her that she was planning to rent a studio for a photo session.

Marin offered to split the studio rent and then Sajuna realized the studio fees can be extremely steep for her. Wakana intervened and said he wanted to share the cost too.

After much deliberation, Sajuna agreed to share the studio fees with Marin and team up for this one-time project.

"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," read the official series synopsis, according to Crunchyroll.

"The popular kids – especially one girl, Marin Kitagawa – seem like they live in a completely different world. That all changes one day, when she shares an unexpected secret with him, and their completely different worlds collide," the synopsis continued.
