From Keiichi Arawi, the adored creator of nichijou, this surreal-slapstick series revolves around a penniless college student, Midori Nagumo, who lives in an ordinary city filled with not-quite-ordinary people. And as this reckless girl runs about, she sets the city in motion. Midori is in a bit of a bind. She is in debt, and her landlady is trying to shake her down for unpaid rent. Her best friend refuses to loan her cash since she's wised up to her tricks. Maybe some bullying would help. Or a bit of petty theft? Neither is sustainable. Maybe getting a job would settle things… But working means less time for fun adventures in the big city…
The City Three Crows try to make the best of summer in the face of overwhelming odds, while Ecchan and Matsuri inevitably waste their time by trying to make the most of it. Niikura reveals her shameful midnight snacking habits even as she tortures Nagumo with unwanted ghost stories, while on the plus side, Nagumo’s rent problems may finally be solved when an Edo-period bandit comes to the rescue?! The soccer team’s roster of stupendous characters still can’t win a game, the barber makes an accidental fortune and loses it again, Wako resists manga stardom, everyone in town has a crush on her little sister Riko, and the mysterious quadrennial CITY race approaches… Return once again to the charming, mind-bending, always unpredictable world of life in the big CITY.
