Synopsis

Talented but eccentric manga writer Karibe Seiichiro (Suzuki Ryohei) has never made an appearance. He hides his identity behind a female pen name and his private life is shrouded in mystery. He is not good at socialising, barely goes out and cannot understand regular people. He continues to write a series which has been a big hit without an assistant. One day, Seiichiro winds up adopting his younger brother’s orphan and his solitary life is disturbed. Kuon Aiko (Yoshioka Riho), a girl around 30 who has no dreams, boyfriend or work, is at the funeral service for her first love. She has an electrifying encounter with Seiichiro, who is the elder brother of her first love, when he makes a preposterous request, “Have a romance with me.”   Adapted from a manga by Yamazaki Sayaka.
