Here is a concise summary of the story:
**Title:** The Anime Girl's Transformation
**Protagonist:** May, a 17-year-old anime enthusiast
**Summary:**
May, a self-described "chubby girl," undergoes extreme transformation to resemble her favorite anime character, including "anime surgery" (costing $5,000, which she secretly steals from her friend Leo's account). Initially, she gains popularity on Instagram and at school. However, her new look is short-lived due to costly maintenance requirements. When a classmate, Cristina, exposes May's surgery, her popularity turns to ridicule. Seeking revenge, May discovers Cristina's own secret weight loss surgery, but ultimately decides against exposing her, realizing the harm of seeking revenge. With Leo's support, May publicly accepts her past surgery, and surprisingly, receives support from others. The story concludes with May valuing true friendship (with Leo) over superficial popularity and learning to appreciate herself.
