24-year-old office worker Rinko is a closet otaku living alone. To heal from the exhaustion of her busy work life, she spends her time indulging in her absolute favorite anime and manga. However, every time she turns on an anime, she is met with a furious "wall slam" (kabe-don) from her neighbor to the right!
Hoping to resolve the conflict, Rinko enlists the help of her neighbor to the left—the refreshing and gentlemanly Satsuki—to try and talk things out through the wall. But suddenly, the wall is kicked right down! Bursting through the wreckage is none other than Usaharu-sensei, the creator of Rinko's all-time favorite manga, Usaneko-bu?!
To make matters worse, Usaharu-sensei (whose real name is Usada) ends up breaking through the wall of Satsuki's room as well...
This is a "one-roof" romantic comedy where love and laughter live side-by-side! A slightly strange room-sharing life begins for these three, now connected by a literal hole in the wall!!
