Before taking office, Noa tries to understand ordinary people’s common sense. His intended peaceful vacation brings trouble at every turn, and his extraordinary antics continue throughout the trip.

Love Unseen Beneath the Clear Night Sky follows shy college student Kakeru Sorano, who meets Koharu Fuyutsuki at a college welcome party. Her striking appearance and gentle smile make her seem worlds apart from him. Then she cheerfully tells him she is blind.

Koharu’s positive outlook, composure and way of experiencing the world draw Kakeru closer. He becomes invested in her dream of setting off fireworks with friends. The two develop a love invisible to the eye.

Underdog Idol takes place in a society where genetic analysis and aptitude testing determine everyone’s future career. High school student Mei Inuzuka receives an S-rank assessment for unemployment, threatening her dream of becoming a top idol.

Mei teams up with classmate Yusei Usami, whose legendary assessment gives him an S-rank aptitude as an idol producer. Together, they pursue the dream society has rejected.

The Marquis and His Second Wife's Idea of a Peaceful Family Dinner Table follows Annelie’s arranged marriage to the notoriously cold Marquis Arnault. His only condition is that she act as a mother to his young son.

The quiet noblewoman nevertheless finds herself farming and attempting to hunt. Her eccentric behavior clashes with the rigid marquis in a newlywed comedy filled with mishaps.

A Mysterious Job Called Oda Nobunaga follows Alsrod, who trains hard hoping to receive the Spellsword profession at his long-awaited profession-bestowal ceremony. Instead, he receives “Oda Nobunaga.”

Nobody knows whether the mysterious name even describes a profession. It proves to be the strongest, most overpowered profession and transforms his fate.
