Synopsis

Worried about her younger brother Juntaro's future, Itako visits the soba restaurant that Juntaro runs. The store is known as the "Ikemen Sobaya," due to the good looks of Juntaro and the part-time delivery boys. Itako discovers that Juntaro does more than just work at the shop - he also happens to work as a detective who solves a lot of incidents around the neighborhood. Juntaro is also surrounded by a cast of strange characters, such as the gay president of a local talent agency and a detective who is constantly at odds with Juntaro. --Tokyograph
