Hoshino Midori has been worn down by the hectic pace of working at a cosmetic surgery clinic. But when the clinic suddenly goes bankrupt, she unexpectedly finds herself unemployed. Seeing her at a loss, her older brother, Konta, suggests she take a "vacation from life" by staying at the villa their late grandmother left behind. Awaiting Midori at the villa are a beautiful seaside view, a garden overflowing with ripe summer oranges, and a mysterious caretaker named Nishigami, whose otherworldly presence immediately stands out. Soon, her close friends Rinrin, Tsumugi, and Tetsuro also gather at the villa. With Nishigami's help, they settle into a fulfilling summer vacation, enjoying carefree days together. Yet as Nishigami quietly watches over them as the villa's caretaker, a trace of sadness occasionally crosses his face. What is the true reason he continues to protect this villa? As summer draws to a close, an approaching storm threatens to dramatically change both Midori's and Nishigami's destinies.

I’ve never read the novel of Into Racha but based on my observation of the pilot released by DMD…
Both leads are bar owner… so why not give both a try…

But surely they will have a lot of differences… might be the plot, the industry and absolutely the vibes…
