Seishuu Handa is a rising calligrapher who is young, attractive, brilliant, and regrettably, narcissistic. When a veteran calls his prize-winning work "unoriginal," Seishuu loses his cool and faces serious consequences. Seishuu's father banishes him to the Goto Islands, far from the comfortable Tokyo lifestyle the temperamental artist is used to, as a punishment and also to help him with self-reflection. Seishuu must now try to discover new inspiration and create his own distinct creative style—if, of course, noisy kids (led by the rambunctious Naru Kotoishi), fujoshi middle schoolers, and active old men cease breaking into his home! The newest member of the close-knit and eccentric Goto community just wants to get some work done, but the islands are not the tranquil countryside he expected when he signed up. The conceited calligrapher learns so much more than he ever wanted to thanks to his eccentric neighbors who are completely incapable of minding their own business.
