Early April, Kazuki Send? is invited by his friend, Taishi Kuhonbutsu, to come with him to Tokyo Big Sight. He is surprised to see thousands of people waiting in line to get in. Apparently they’re at Comic Party, a giant d?jinshi convention. Once inside, Kazuki meets some of the d?jinshi artists and is surprised to find himself enjoying their work. Taishi convinces Kazuki to draw d?jinshi after their visit because he recognizes Kazuki’s skill as an artist, but Kazuki’s childhood friend Mizuki tries to talk him out of it because she believes otakus are smelly, dirty, and disgusting. Her reasoning doesn’t help because Kazuki already made up his mind and begins to draw his first d?jinshi.
