![]() ![]() The ReviewĪt the start, Keiko comes off as an oddball who doesn’t care about fitting in and while this is admirable, she was a little bit too odd for me. ![]() Keiko’s story is a tale of bravery, acceptance, and finding your inner peace. As she’s doing this, she realises that her she’s meant to be konbini, employee. The store is in chaos and Keiko immediately starts to reorganise the shelves. On the way to an interview, Keiko sees another convenience store. He convinces her to quit her job at the convenience store and look for a “normal” job. A good idea to begin with, but Shiraha soon tries to change Keiko. They pretend to be a couple so that they can avoid problems caused by their families and society. Keiko is wary of Shiraha but they make an agreement. Whilst working at the convenience store, Keiko meets Shiraha, a fellow oddball. Keiko likes working at the convenience store as it lets her observe the “normal” people she works with and mimic their behaviour in her own life.
