Seishuu Handa is a rising calligrapher: young, handsome, talented, and unfortunately, a narcissist as well. When a veteran criticizes his award-winning piece as "unoriginal," Seishuu quickly loses his temper, leading to severe repercussions. As punishment, and also to help him reflect on himself, Seishuu's father sends him away to the Goto Islands, far from the comfortable Tokyo lifestyle the temperamental artist is accustomed to. Now placed in a rural setting, Seishuu must try to find new inspiration and develop his own unique art style—that is, if boisterous children (led by the lively Naru Kotoishi), fujoshi middle schoolers, and energetic old men stop barging into his house! The newest member of the intimate and quirky Goto community only wants to get some work done, but the islands are far from the peaceful countryside he expected. Thanks to his eccentric neighbors, who are entirely incapable of minding their own business, the arrogant calligrapher learns much more than he ever hoped to.
