It's spring.
I've graduated from high school,
and start my job today!
And can you believe it? I'll be working at-
A game company!
I'm Suzukaze Aoba.
Nice to meet you.
I'm Suzukaze Aoba.
Nice to meet you.
The day I become an adult has finally come!
All right!
Wait, is it really okay for me to go in?
Hey, stop that!
Just kidding.
This is a business, so children aren't allowed to enter.
I-I'm sorry.
No, that's not it!
I'm Suzukaze Aoba, and I'll be working at Eagle Jump.
Nice to meet you!
Oh, you're a new employee?
I'm sorry, I just assumed...
No, I'm sorry, too.
I'm Suzukaze Aoba.
Have you heard that I'll be joining the company?
Suzukaze...
Yeah, I've heard!
We're on the same team.
I'm Toyama Rin, the AD.
Nice to meet you.
There's a pro standing right in front of me!
U-Um, it must be tough being an AD.
They're on TV all the time and have so many different tasks to handle.
They seem really busy.
Oh, my AD isn't for "Assistant Director", it's for "Art Director."
So my job is to manage all of the visuals.
I'm so sorry!
No, it's fine!

This is your desk.
Oh, would you like something to drink?
Sure, I'd like some orang-
No, wait, I'm a business woman starting today!
Coffee. Black.
I'm glad she seems so nice.
And now I'll get to work!
I'm worn...
I can't take it...
A monster?
P-Panties?!
Pa-PaPaPa-Pa-PaPa-
A middle schooler?
Why is there a child here?
I'm not a child!
Oh, you're awake?
Rin, who is this?
This is Suzukaze Aoba-san. She's starting here today.
Would you like mine?
Thanks.
Huh. Which team is she-
There's no sugar in this!
Oh, sorry, I mixed them up.
Let's trade!
You act really grown up.
You drink it black?
I'm an adult, after all.
I can handle this much.
You can't?!
So, how old are you?
Eighteen.
Oh?
So you joined after graduating from high school.
That's rare.
But your looks wouldn't even pass for a high schooler.
What about you?
How old are you?
How old do I look?
What should I do?
I can't just say something random.
That's-
A Fairies Story poster!
Oh, you know it?
It's the first game I was involved with.
I was addicted to it back in grade school!
That's how I found out about this company...
A-A-A-A...
Are you over thir-
I'm not that old!
I'm 25.
I also joined after graduating from high school.
Um, I'm sorry.
You don't need to worry about it.
By the way...
How old do I look?
23...?
We're the same age!
She's a good girl.
B-But I'm so moved!
The people who made the game I loved so much as a child are right in front of me!
I especially loved the character design.
In that case, Yagami Ko here created the character designs for Fairies Story.
You're Yagami-sensei?!
Your attitude suddenly changed...
And Yagami is your boss now,
so I hope the two of you get along.
I-I'll do my betht!
Oh, she messed it up.
F-Forget about that!
I quickly introduced myself to the team and then started working.
Apparently I'm the only new employee this year.
It makes me feel a bit dismayed.
No, no! Stop being so negative, Aoba!
I've got to start by making friends with my neighbours!
Um-
I can't!
I guess that pose will work.
What's with this company?!
Is the person who sits there not here today?
Good morning.
Good morning!
U-Um!
I'm Suzukaze Aoba, and I started working here today.
Takimoto Hifumi.
Nice to meet you.
Are you also part of the character team, Takimoto-san?
I-I'm sorry...
What should I do...
I don't feel like I'll be able to make friends with any of them!
Eh?
Why's there a cat in the office?
You're so cute.
Oh, there you are.
So you came all the way over here to play?
You're the new employee, Suzukaze Aoba-kun, right?
I apologise for my little one.
Oh, no.
You're cute.
I'm the director of the game this team is making, Haduki Shizuku.
O-Oh! Nice to meet you!
That cat...
His name is Mozuku.
I bring him with me once in a while.
If I leave him at home every day,
he gets bored and causes trouble, you see.
Haduki-san.
I've been looking for you.
Oh, Umiko-kun.
Do you need something?
The meeting has already started.
Ah, oh no.
Well, please don't get angry.
You'll get wrinkles if you do.
Sorry, sorry!
Now, let's get going.
Everyone's waiting.
Well, then, Suzukaze-kun.
Do your best.
S-Sure...
The director doesn't seem very important.
A company message?

Hifumi-senpai!
Huh?
Ko@IWantToGoHomeAtClosingTime
Behind you! Behind!
Um...
What are they doing?!
Is there... something you need help with?
Eh? Ah, yes.
But I figured it out after thinking about it!
Another company message came.
Ko@IWantToGoHomeAtClosingTime
I think it would be better to ask Hifumi questions through messages!
Yagami-san!
All right!
Send!
Sorry about earlier. As for my question, the reference book says you can hide all objects other than the selected one,

No problem.

I think I can get along here!
I got a message from Aoba.
Shining Aoba
I'm making my way through
the part of the book you instructed me to.
It's simple（＊`ω´）b
I'm making my way through the part of the book you instructed me to.
It's simple.
She was influenced really fast!
Yagami Ko
Good work.
Could you come to my desk?
I'd like to teach you a few things,
including how to use the messaging system.
Good work.
Could you come to my desk?
I'd like to teach you a few things, including how to use the messaging system.
I-I'm so sorry!
Have a bit of discretion.
Hajime Unit 1
Yun, you're her senpai,
so shouldn't you invite Suzukaze-san to lunch?
Yun, you're her senpai, so shouldn't you invite Suzukaze-san to lunch?
I don't mind inviting her, but why don't you do it?
You do it, Yun!
You're her senpai, but you're such a coward!
Suzukaze-san, want to go have lunch?
Me, too! Me, too!
Um, what about Hifumi-senpai?
Oh, Hifumi-senpai never has lunch...
Want to come with us today?
S-Sorry...
Oh, sorry for causing you trouble.
But...
I'd like to sometime!
Aoba... chan...
I-I'll go after all!
Aoba! Let's have lunch toge-
She's not here?
What's wrong?
Sorry for the late introduction.
I'm Iizima Yun, from the character team.
She joined at the same time as me.
I'm Shinoda Hazime, from the motion team.
Nice to meet'cha!
...you.
I can't do it!
This is the first time I've had a kouhai!
And it's the first time we've met!
You don't need to worry about that.
You're my senpai, after all!
Shinoda-senpai.
Senpai?!
That kind of gives me goosebumps,
so just call me Hajime.
Okay, then, Hajime-san.
You can call me Aoba, too.
Yeah, nice to meet you, Aoba... san.
Wait, is that strange?
She kept bugging me on the company message system to invite you to lunch!
Hey! Don't talk about that!
It's fine.
You're nervous about having your first kouhai, aren't you?
You are too, though, Yun!
Hajime was interested in the conversation you had with Hifumi-senpai earlier, Aoba-chan.
I told you not to talk about that!
Thank goodness.
They all seem like nice people.
All right, I'll keep working!
But before that, I'm heading to the bathroom.
Toilet, toilet, going to the toilet, toile-
Y-Yagami-san!
W-What are you doing?
I went to the bathroom, but don't have an employee ID,
so the door wouldn't open!
Ah, yeah, the bathroom is outside the office, after all.
Aside from getting in and out of the office, if you don't have an employee ID,
you won't be able to punch in and punch out.
It's rather irresponsible for management to forget that.
Oh, Ko-chan.
Did you take the picture for Aoba-chan's employee ID?
Huh?
I asked you to do that this morning, didn't I?
Oh.
I'll go take it right now!
Stand by that wall.
O-Okay!
Hey, while you can dress however you like here...
Why are you wearing a school uniform?
Oh, come on.
It's not a school uniform; it's a suit.
It's a fundamental part of being a business person.
Doesn't look like one.
Well, at least learn the proper way to wear a suit.
Whoa
The suit doesn't go with her childlike face at all!
Whoa
Well, whatever.
I heard the voice inside your head just now!
Well, let's get this taken care of.
There's not enough light.
Hajime, lend me some lights.
Huh?
I don't have any lights.
Sure you do.
That light-up sword.
This is looking good!
Now then, just wait for it to be finished.
I see.
You couldn't get back in.
Yeah. I had no idea what to do.
I was about to cry.
Sounds like it was tough.
Why not have some snacks and relax a bit?
Amazing!
Hifumi-senpai, would you like to have a snack?
I'd live to! I brought some candy today! （`ω´ ）
I'd live to!
I brought some candy today!
Here.
Aoba-chan, you're studying 3D right now?
Yes.
I want to learn it quickly so I can start working.
When does the game you're making now go on sale?
When was it?
In half a year.
Rumour has it that we're about to enter the frighteningly busy period.
-be able to-
We won't be able to... go home...
Saying it like that isn't helping!
But Yagami-san is already staying overnight, isn't she?
Is it because she's the leader?
It might be better to say she lives at the office.
She's amazing.
She does the workload of several people by herself.
If only her personality weren't like that!
Aoba, sorry for the wait.
Here's your employee ID.
It feels like I've really joined the company!
Well, you joined quite a while back...
It's important to take breaks,
but the work day isn't over yet, so hurry up and get back to work.
Okay.
So, how far have you progressed, Aoba?
Ah, well!
This far!
Oh, pretty fast.
Once you get a bit further, I'll give you some work, so I'll be counting on you.
You can learn the harder stuff through experience.
Okay!
How's Aoba-chan doing?
She's catches on pretty quickly, which is really nice.
I've got high expectations for her.
I'll do my best!
But-
Before that, I'm heading to the bathroom.
To-ToToTo-Toilet-huh?
Yagami-san!
Good work, everyone.
Yagami-san, you're not staying overnight tonight?
I won't last if I keep staying every night.
And Rin will get mad at me.
Rin-san gets mad?
She occasionally gets mad a lot.
Graphic Designer
Which is it?
Graphic Designer
How was your first day?
Do you have any questions?
Y-Yeah!
Um...
There's an important thing I haven't asked.
Sure, ask away.
The new game our team is making-
What is it called?
No one told you?
Now that you mention it...
We never said it, either, huh?
The third instalment of Faries Story.
I...
...decided I wanted to be a character designer because of that game!
I'll do my best!
Thank you!
I'm so tired.
Fairies Story 3.
Nenecchi
Oh, it's Nenecchi.
Aocchi!
Hey, did you hear?!
They're making a Moon Ranger movie!
Eh? What's that?
I've never heard of it.
It's a popular anime!
It was worth being a fan for so long!
When it hits theatres, let's go together!
Sure, but I'm worn out now.
I'm hanging up. Goodnight.
Wait!
What?
I mean... I bet your first day at work was tough,
so I didn't want to make you talk about work at home, too.
No, it's fine.
Hey, listen!
Something amazing happened!
You know Yagami Ko-san, right?
The person who did the character design for Fairies Story.
I'm working with her now!
Eh?! That's amazing!
I'll do my best.
Do my best so that I can do work, too.
So we can make a new game.
Aocchi! Are game companies really busy?
I don't know yet, Nenecchi.
But there was someone who stayed overnight at the office!
Maybe you encountered someone sleeping in nothing but a pair of panties!
As if there's an adult who would do something like that!
