Plot Synopsis by AsianWiki Staff ©

Mana Endo (Yuki Sakurai) is an OL and she is about to turn 30-years-old. She has enjoyed posting about herself on social media, but she has grown tired of that.

yoichi franck Oct 04 2020 6:34 pm i loved this dorama

AS Oct 04 2019 1:09 am Name of heroin is not "Mana Endo", but "Ai Endo".

nandarou Aug 22 2019 4:56 am This show is freaking genius. I would say this is Tokusatsu Gagaga's spiritual twin done in darker tone. So far it has very riveting and believable storyline and acting, especially from the two leads. If it ends in a high note (which sadly often absent in even WOWOW dramas, let alone NHK's), it could've been Morishita Yoshiko's best work ever.
