Synopsis
Seko Ririko belongs to the accounting department of a major publisher, Kusunoki Publishing. She is poor at understanding people’s feelings and reading situations. However, she has a strong desire to learn about the world and other people as well as the ability to perceive slight contradictions and mistakes. In the department, Ririko is nicknamed Cerberus, after the dog that guards the gates to the underworld in Greek mythology, for her strict checks. Recognising her potential, Niwa Masaki enlisted her cooperation to take down a rival. After becoming an executive officer, he decides to order Ririko to turnaround Kanfuru News, an online news site run by Kusunoki Publishing. Under its chief editor Yamada Reiji who has a laissez faire approach, the all-male editorial staff have only been publishing comments that are copied and pasted from other companies’ news and blog posts. The page views are around 500,000 a month and there are barely any advertisements. Ririko arrives at the editorial team with the goal of increasing the page views and develops a strategy to attack with gossip. In the process of gathering information and posting articles for this purpose, Ririko slowly begins to find significance in her work in online news that she had thought unnecessary in the world. As the men around her come in touch with her straightforward working style and extremely awkward and innocent side, they grow to like her. And she also grows through her interactions with them.
