Shoji Inoyama

Ten years have passed since the end of Bakumatsu, an era of war that saw the uprising of citizens against the Tokugawa shogunate. The revolutionaries wanted to create a time of peace, and a thriving country free from oppression. The new age of Meiji has come, but peace has not yet been achieved. Swords are banned but people are still murdered in the streets. Orphans of war veterans are left with nowhere to go, while the government seems content to just line their pockets with money.

Early 2000s Tokyo. Isobe, a combatant for the evil corporation Ganglion, spends his days on the battlefield. Whether it's the "Tokyo Cedar Pollen Operation" or the "Mount Fuji Demolition Plan," he faces off in nothing but a bodysuit, only to be crushed by the hero Hopeman time and again. As he struggles under unreasonable bosses during the dawn of compliance, his story unfolds—a workplace drama dedicated to all who work, following the bittersweet life of a salaryman soldier.
