Meshi Agare Ai wo

Sasagawa is a reserved, antisocial civil servant who prefers to keep the world at arm's length. However, his carefully maintained solitude is shattered after a night of heavy drinking leaves him with no memory of how he ended up back home. When morning arrives, he wakes to a startling discovery: a completely naked man is fast asleep beside him in his bed. The unexpected guest turns out to be Toshinari, a neighbor who happens to run a restaurant on the ground floor of their shared apartment building. Rather than sharing Sasagawa’s embarrassment over the compromising situation, Toshinari approaches the incident with disarming sincerity. He confidently declares that this shocking encounter was not a mere accident, but rather fate bringing them together. Forced out of his comfort zone, the socially awkward civil servant must now navigate an unforeseen connection with the earnest restaurateur living just below him. What follows is a heartwarming and delicious romance exploring the endearing, often clumsy attempts of two adults trying to make sense of their sudden relationship and the unexpected affection growing between them.
