It has been published on Akita Shoten's online manga platform Manga Cross since February 2019. An anime television series adaptation produced by A-1 Pictures aired from October to December 2023.

Synopsis

Kentarō Momose, whose physical and mental health deteriorated after his boss' power harassment, changed his job to a sales position at an advertising agency. However, due to his trauma, he is unable to move due to stomach pain during his first tour. Momose's new boss, Shirosaki, leaves Momose without saying anything, and Momose becomes worried that his new boss will be the same as before.

As he panics, Shirosaki returns with medicine for menstruation cramps, realizing in his panic he defaulted to the stomach pain medication he bought for his ex-girlfriend, and the tension is relieved as Momose realizes the reason his boss disappeared.

The series continues to follow the two of them as Momose struggles to overcome his trauma and Shirosaki's accidental antics and good-hearted attempts to protect Momose slowly help him recover.

Following a phone call from his former boss and a threat to stalk his apartment, Momose moves in suddenly with Shirosaki.

Characters

Yūsei Shirosaki (白崎 優清, Shirosaki Yūsei)
Voiced by: Takahiro Sakurai[4] (drama CD), Yūichirō Umehara[3] (anime)
Member of the Planning and Sales department at Minette. Originally from Akita Prefecture, his family members are rice farmers and his older brother a photographer. Despite his airheadedness, his work performance is good. His "goofiness" thusly endears him to his subordinates.
Kentarō Momose (桃瀬 健太郎, Momose Kentarō)
Voiced by: Koutaro Nishiyama[3]
Employee of Minette at their headquarters in the Planning and Sales department. He grew up in Hokkaido. His previous company was a black company where he always had overtime and suffered from power harassment under his boss. After seeing an ad created by Shirosaki, he quit and joined Minette, where he reports to Shirosaki.
Mitsuo Aoyama (青山 光男, Aoyama Mitsuo)
Voiced by: Tomokazu Sugita[3]
Head of the Planning and Sales department at Minette. He hails from Kyoto Prefecture. His wife left him shortly after he bought a house due to feeling neglected because of his focus on work and providing for his family, and a new employee he was in charge of ran away after a week. As a result, he has low self-esteem and is lonely. His home is filled with mascot dolls in an attempt to soothe his loneliness. 10 years ago, he was Shirosaki's mentor.
Aigo Kinjō (金城 愛悟, Kinjō Aigo)
Voiced by: Tatsuhisa Suzuki[4] (drama CD), Jun Fukuyama[3] (anime)
Employee of the Planning and Sales department at Minette. He is originally from Okinawa. Technically Momose's junior at the company, they treat each other as colleagues. Like Momose, he was also subject to power harassment, and seeing Momose and Shirosaki interact motivated him to switch jobs. He is openly bisexual and a fan of anime, which Momose finds astounding.
Hakutō (白桃)
Voiced by: Hiro Shimono[3]
An abandoned cat that Momose and Shirosaki found and picked up. He was abandoned because he sharpened his nails on his owner's couch, but he says he ran away because of his owner's power harassment. Shirosaki adopts him and Hakuto quickly realizes Shirosaki is not inclined to abandon him, but still struggles to admit his own affections.
