After Akihito transfers departments at his job, he can’t seem to fit in. Despite his technical expertise, he lacks speaking skills and can’t even fake a smile. One day, he gets into a trivial argument and angers Ogami, a coworker whom he secretly looks up to. Feeling down, he happens upon a shrine and trips on the stairs. When Akihito awakes, he’s met with friendly voices from his coworkers, as well as Ogami’s hot stare. It’s a complete 180. Suddenly, he’s in a more comfortable world.
