Synopsis

Yoga instructor Sawada Kyoka returned to her family home after her mother passed away two years prior, and now lives with her father Rintaro, who is a Japanese language scholar and lexicographer. He has no energy in his life, and he barely manages to carry out daily household tasks. His only interest happens to be the Japanese language, which he spends time studying constantly.

Although Kyoka loves her father, she tends to get into arguments with him often, as well as feeling the burden of having to care for him. Sawada Kyoka just wants a life where she can focus on herself and has no desire to marry. However, one day, her father finds divorce papers while organizing his late wife’s belongings and resolves to look for a new partner. At the same time he begins trying to encourage his daughter into getting married. It is then that Kyoka meets Higashimura Seita, a divorcee and single father with a 7 year old son, and is also reunited with her childhood friend Fuwa Hayate after 18 years.
