A rebellious and a bit of a social misfit 17-year-old, Karin is idling around and often absent from school. One day she experiences an indescribable feeling when she gives up her seat on the train to a sick person, and it gives her inspiration. Karin, with a help of her best friend Fuko, decides to stage events to encourage people to do good things hoping it would change the world eventually. They secretly tape the faked events and their post went viral. But she soon finds out that the life is not so simple.
