Tamako Market Specials

Dera imagines himself a sophisticated host, welcoming Tamako and her friends for conversation and advice. Their food orders and blunt responses quickly puncture the atmosphere he hopes to create, and his own fondness for talking leaves his guests little opportunity to contribute.

Meanwhile, Choi encounters everyday customs far from her island home. Things her new friends take for granted can be thoroughly puzzling to her, making ordinary exchanges a source of awkward discoveries and humor alongside Dera's self-important performances.
