Synopsis:

In a modern Japanese city, an unlikely trio navigates the challenges of office life. A lion, a toucan, and a lizard attempt to blend into a human-dominated corporate world, facing everyday struggles alongside the inherent difficulties of their non-human existence. The series explores themes of adaptation and belonging as they grapple with societal expectations and their own identities within a structured environment.

The narrative balances comedic situations arising from their animalistic traits with observations on contemporary working culture. It offers a nuanced perspective on navigating social hierarchies, examining how differences are perceived and accommodated in a world built for one species. The anime presents a gentle, character-driven story that examines the complexities of integration and self-discovery within a seemingly ordinary setting.
