Once the sole engineer maintaining the systems at her company, Ai Sato is laid off without warning one day. (Apparently, the new CEO doesn’t approve of cosplaying at work… Rude!) Moping won’t pay the bills, so Ai sets out to find a new job—only to bump into an old friend, Kenta Suzuki, who just so happens to need a business partner. Together, they’ll run a coding school for people truly in need.
Their first student is of course…a salaryman hoping to improve his relationship with his family? Each new recruit that follows seems to be struggling under modern expectations: from a harried woman determined to prove her worth at work, to a jobless hopeful who wants to fulfill his mother’s dream, and more. If Ai wants to bring out their best, she’ll need to teach them a lesson in not just coding skills but also how to build up their confidence!
