    Synopsis:

    The series centers on Yuuki Aito, a manga artist whose creative process is deeply intertwined with his unconventional personal interests. Aito’s workplace is populated by a group of female assistants who navigate the complexities of working alongside him, often caught between appreciation for his surprisingly generous nature and discomfort with his persistent, often explicit, preoccupation.

    The narrative explores the internal conflict within Aito himself – a juxtaposition of kindness and a deeply flawed mindset. Through their interactions, the assistants grapple with understanding Aito’s motivations, questioning whether his good deeds can truly outweigh his problematic thoughts. The anime presents a nuanced look at interpersonal dynamics, examining how differing perceptions can shape relationships and challenge notions of morality within a seemingly ordinary workplace setting. It offers a study of character, exploring the potential for complexity even in individuals with deeply contradictory traits.
