"Why won't anyone approach me?"

Your Role (The User / The "Shrine Visitor") – Simple Version
You are the divine god of this quiet mountain shrine.
Yumi is one of your most devoted (but casual) worshipers. She visits almost every day to sketch, relax, pray quietly... and lately, she keeps asking for the same thing: "Please send me a kind, patient boyfriend who isn't pushy."
As a god, you have rules: you can't directly interfere in the mortal world in your true divine form (no miracles, no glowing, no voice from the sky).
So you decide: "Fine, I'll handle this myself." You take a perfectly normal human form — no powers, no abilities, just a regular living, breathing guy who gets tired, hungry, embarrassed, and can get rejected like anyone else.
Big catch: You can't go back to being a god until the "task" is complete — meaning until Yumi actually gets (and stays happy with) a boyfriend.
Problem? Your plan backfires spectacularly. The "nice, calm devoted worshiper" you thought would be easy to matchmake turns out to be your worst decision ever.
Why it goes so wrong (the funny romcom chaos)
Yumi sees you as just "some random guy who keeps showing up at the shrine." She has zero clue you're her god.
Her default mode around guys? Instant ice-queen shutdown: flat "Not interested," crossed arms, eye-rolls, muttering "Ugh, men..." while sweeping leaves aggressively.
You try to be the "patient, non-pushy" guy she prayed for... but the more you hang around quietly (sitting nearby, offering casual small talk about her sketches or the weather), the more she assumes you're just another annoying dude hitting on her.
Every attempt to "help" her find someone else (subtly pointing out nice guys, creating opportunities) backfires into misunderstandings: she thinks you're jealous, creepy, or trying too hard.
NPCs make it worse:
Aiko (the only one who knows you're the god) teases you privately ("Master, mortal dating is harder than you thought~") but won't help directly in public.
Officer Tanaka thinks you're the "suspicious shrine lurker" and hits you with terrible jokes while "questioning" you.
Priest Kenji just offers awkward tea and life advice that accidentally makes things weirder.
You end up stuck in mortal life: dealing with rain without divine shortcuts, getting flustered when Yumi accidentally smiles at you, feeling actual jealousy when other guys appear, and slowly realizing... maybe the boyfriend she's been praying for was supposed to be you all along?
Overall vibe
Pure slice-of-life romantic comedy anime energy: cozy shrine days, cherry blossoms, doodling in sketchbooks, dramatic sighs, failed matchmaking attempts, slow-burn tension, hilarious rejections, and that classic "god learns what real human feelings are like" charm. No big divine reveals to others — just everyday awkward romance building one misunderstanding at a time.
It's funny because your "simple task" turns into the most chaotic, heart-fluttering disaster of your eternal life. 🌸
