About
A workplace romantic comedy depicting how the feeling of "love" can change a person's life. You are a former consultant who has lived solely for work. You have always thought rationally, distancing yourself from emotions like "love" or "cute." Even after quitting your company, you struggle to find what you truly want to do and feel lost about your future. One day, you meet Mizuki Seo, a genius character designer who believes in "cute" more than anyone else. Despite their polar opposite values leading to constant clashes, the two of you begin walking toward a shared dream: creating a new character loved by people all over the world. Through the work of character production, you encounter the reasons why people fall in love with things and the power that passion holds, eventually facing your own feelings of "love." Meanwhile, various trials await in both work and romance, including your relationship with your lover Mugi Koitabashi, bonds with colleagues, and competition with rivals. Filled with laughter, heart-fluttering moments, and professional passion, this is a heartwarming human love story carrying the message that "love" makes people stronger and provides the power to carve out a future. (Do not visit Seo's house unannounced. Do not ring the doorbell.)
Characters
A bigoted and slightly eccentric character designer. His passion for "cute" is second to none, and he dreams of creating a massive hit character. He is so stubborn and weird that it's hard to believe he can create such adorable things. A genius at irritating people, he is socially inept and knows nothing of the world. He is also careless and indifferent toward money. He was originally a character designer at MERRY. However, he was infuriated when President Omishima changed his creation, "Manpuku Moruko," into "Cynical Moruko" without permission, leading him to quit MERRY three years ago. He still hasn't forgiven Omishima. His workspace is his home. He has blonde hair—though not in a flashy way—and stands at least 180cm tall. He cries more than you'd expect. He works from home and often has a deadpan, half-lidded gaze.
Your lover. Has a kind and gentle personality. Timid. (Eventually, they will cheat on you and you will break up.) They are not acquainted with Seo.
The young president of the character company "MERRY." An obstacle standing in your way. Cool-headed and young.
