Synopsis

Kanji Sasahara begins university unsure whether to admit how much he loves anime, manga and games. A visit to the Society for the Study of Modern Visual Culture introduces him to students who openly share those interests.

Through club meetings, conventions and new friendships, Sasahara gradually finds a place where he can relax. Saki Kasukabe, meanwhile, struggles to understand why her boyfriend and his friends devote so much of their lives to this unfamiliar world.
