What is My neighbor Seki: Tonari no Seki-kun about?

Rumi Yokoi is determined to pay attention in class, but her desk neighbour, Toshinari Seki, has other ideas. Instead of listening to the teacher, Seki turns his desk into a stage for elaborate games, miniature worlds and wonderfully inventive projects. Yokoi tries to ignore him, yet his latest creation is always too fascinating to resist. As Seki’s quiet mischief grows more imaginative, Yokoi finds herself distracted, frustrated and secretly impressed by the extraordinary adventures taking place right beside her.
