At first sight, 24-year-old Gorou Sagami falls head over heels for Musubu Kondou, a fellow researcher at the rubber goods company where he works. When a chance to move to the Integrated Development Department and be near her comes up, he jumps at it. Eager to get to know the woman he admires, he cheerfully introduces himself to the whole team. However, after their initial exchange, Musubu gives Sagami an icy glare and bolts from the room. Swallowing his wounded pride, he tells himself that a simple greeting is enough—until Musubu suddenly stops him in the hallway a short while later. She drops something into his hand, asks for his thoughts on it, and quickly excuses herself to run off again. Sagami is stunned to realize the item she handed him for testing is a condom. While Sagami is determined to get closer to his crush, Musubu's only concern is crafting better condoms. The day-to-day lives of two coworkers who have little dating experience are bound to be filled with unusual but hilarious situations—yet could a workplace romance still be on the horizon for them?
