I notice Emura often makes a simple plot about issues on family, friendship, and love, and a bunch of unique and extreme characters that are highly unlikely found in real life.
The main character is a 15 years old girl who can run faster than a moving car/bus named Homare. She runs an inn called Gokuraku (meaning Paradise) with her older cousin Saki who curiously looks like a mafia boss. Later, they take in three 'stray cats' in the form of handsome boys named Ikoma, Kippei, and Otoya as new employees (they are the same age as Homare is).
Everyone has his/her own problems, and the absence of parents in this story is so apparent. Homare's mother is unconscious and has been hospitalized for month, while her father ran away from home, leaving a big pile of debt. Ikoma's mother abandons him, while his father is unknown. Kippei's mother was a second wife to a man who has already married with two boys (and these two are mean to Kippei), and after she passed away, Kippei is expelled from the family. Otoya is an orphan who lost his dream to become an athlete after he suffers a leg injury.
Near the end of volume one, Gokuraku gets another employee, a beautiful girl named Raiza, who seems to hate Ikoma for some blurry reasons.
