Dating can be tough when you nerd out over barbecue. Kenta, a practical pitmaster, looks for a grill-friend in Chihiro, an aloof and faultless business babe…or is she? Scared of being rejected for who they really are, the two of them find comfort in food and each other…and all is well until Kenta must transfer away. With their developing relationship at steak, Chihiro proposes they tie the knot and they marry for better or wurst. Winging a long-distance marriage is one thing, but here’s the rub—they barely know each other! It’s a rare marriage where all the awkwardness of dating meets a sizzling passion for grilling!
As Rina schemes to make Mifune jealous, Kenta and Chihiro send off summer with one last hurrah—Fukuyama Fest! But now that she’s living in Hamamatsu, Chihiro realizes nothing has changed—she still gets work from her former bosses and has no clients of her own. Bummed out, she vows to break free of Fushimi’s kindness…who is currently on the verge of tears at a street corner. But wait…is that Toda to the rescue?!
