Umio is a shy kid who just started his part time job a
t a manga store
smack dab in the middle of the city. But his lifestyle isn’t as
glamorous as the neon lights that illuminate the city. Umio’s closest
friends are his co-workers who are all unique characters, to say the
least, and although they're nice people, they have their quirks. They
are a tight knit group of friends, have nicknames for each other and
spend their weekends inside, sheltered from the extravagant scene
happening on the outside.
