Gloomy Neighbor at the Standing Bar

Seiya Tonami is an office worker in his late twenties. His Friday night routine involves relaxing with a drink, alone at his favorite standing bar. But one day, after coming to the rescue of a college girl who was getting unwelcome attention at the bar, he finds himself sitting next to her every week. From small-talk about daily life to lighthearted complaints… Even though it's just casual conversation, it's so nice to have someone beside you, having a laugh together — it's a romantic comedy that makes you look forward to those Friday nights at the bar, where you feel free to get a little tipsy.
