Synopsis:

Fumiyama Fumio leads a quiet, unremarkable life as an office worker, perpetually overshadowed by self-doubt. His routine is disrupted by an unexpected encounter with Ganesha, the benevolent Hindu deity of wisdom and prosperity. Ganesha’s guidance isn't about grand power, but subtle shifts in perspective – encouraging Fumio to confront his anxieties and embrace unconventional approaches. The series explores themes of personal growth and finding strength within everyday challenges. Set against a backdrop of modern urban life subtly interwoven with spiritual elements, the narrative unfolds as a gentle character study. It examines how small acts of courage, inspired by unexpected sources, can gradually reshape one’s perception of self and unlock hidden potential in the face of ordinary struggles.
