During Hada Haruka's high school years, Kuroi Ritsu's "With You" manga was highly successful and widely known. Haruka idolized the manga's protagonist and rebranded herself into a stylish, sharp-witted woman modeled after the character.
After persistent effort, Haruka lands a job as an editor for Kuroi Ritsu herself. Although she is excited to meet the person who impacted her life so significantly, the encounter with Ritsu falls short of her expectations.
Ritsu is introverted and timid, and she tends to delay her work and miss her deadlines. Avoiding Haruka and spending most of her time secluded in her home, she causes trouble for her editor. Nonetheless, Haruka refuses to back down and vows to support Ritsu in crafting her best manga yet.
