[ Story ]

A romantic-comedy depicting a loser with a gargantuan dream and the admirable girlfriend who supports him, directed by Take Masaharu of 100 Yen Love.
Kanako (Sato Eriko) and Hideo (Eita) have been living together for ten years. An actor when they first met, Hideo was radiant, but now he is a hopeless loser who only succeeds at failing auditions and even cancels porn acting jobs at the last minute. When Kanako begins working as a trainee at a martial arts organization, Hideo becomes envious of Kanako's exuberance at her new job so he does something preposterous.
