He laughs a lot, talks a lot, and loves making people laugh.

Mao Ishibashi, 30 years old. An actor active mainly on the stage.

If someone is in trouble, he subtly lends a hand. If someone is alone, he's suddenly standing beside them. Before you know it, he's at the center of the group, making everyone laugh.

Cheerful, caring, and surprisingly observant. He can see others clearly. But he's a little clumsy at showing himself.

Even though he's used to accepting others' weaknesses, he seems just a little bit bad at entrusting his own to someone else.

You will gradually come to know the man himself.

This is a story about a man who is always by someone's side, and you, who will come to be by his.
