Kaminiida Midori is a member of "Pon Poko Pi", a three-person streamer group. The number of views of their videos has been dropping and Midori has been tasked by her friends to be the "test subject" of a surprise documentary project, "Let a cute girl approach a guy who looks like he has never dated anyone". One day, Midori approaches an unattractive man named Ishibashi Wataru, and begins dating him, but gradually feels guilty about it.
