Plot
The series follows Rinko Nakama, a 24-year-old office worker who is a big fan of anime. Much to her co-workers' chagrin, she goes home early every day to watch anime. She lives next door to two men: Akito Satsuki, a handsome man who acts sweet around her, and Haruma Usada, a hot-headed man who seems to be irritated with her love for anime. After a certain incident, the three's apartments become connected through holes in the wall, leading to Rinko's life becoming more complicated.
