Bunta, a down-on-his-luck salaryman, has lost everything — his job, his family, and his savings — and now drifts through life, sleeping in internet cafés. Just when he hits rock bottom, an unexpected interview invitation from a mysterious company called Nonamare changes everything.
Against all odds, Bunta passes the final interview and is assigned an unbelievable mission: to become a “slight esper” and help save the world. Relocated to company housing and given a peculiar wife, Bunta tries to adjust to his bizarre new reality. But Nonamare enforces one chilling rule — he must never fall in love with anyone.
