Synopsis

Chika Ogiue arrives at the Society for the Study of Modern Visual Culture declaring that she hates otaku, hardly an easy introduction to its members. Her abrasive attitude brings her into conflict with Ohno while concealing a difficult relationship with her own interests.

As drawing, cosplay, and animated discussions continue around her, the club tries to accommodate its newest member. Their awkward encounters turn questions of taste into a more personal challenge: accepting both themselves and people who do not yet feel they belong.
