Hara-chan is often intoxicated at a budget-friendly bar, rambling on as usual. This is a routine occurrence for him. Despite his constant frustration, he lacks the insight and bravery to change his ways. Hara-chan is the protagonist of the manga "Nakuna, Hara-chan". The artist behind this manga is Echizen-san, an unassuming woman employed at a fish paste factory. Instead of keeping a diary, she channels her built-up resentment into drawing comic strips in a notebook. This serves as Echizen-san's only means of expression as she appears to have lost her zest for life. However, one day, a miraculous event takes place. Hara-chan suddenly awakens to the beauty of the world around him. He becomes aware of the sun's warmth, the gentle breeze, and the sparkling stars. He has transitioned from the pages of the manga into the real world. In this reality, Hara-chan finds himself falling in love with Echizen-san, despite the fact that he is not human in this world.
