Akiko is a kind and gentle android who works as a waitress at a cafe in the futuristic city of Niihama. She is one of the few androids in the city who is allowed to interact with humans, and she enjoys getting to know her customers and learning about their lives. One day, Akiko meets a young man named Rikuo who is visiting Niihama for the first time. Rikuo is immediately drawn to Akiko's kindness and compassion, and the two of them quickly become friends. As they spend more time together, Rikuo begins to see that Akiko is more than just a machine. She is a complex and intelligent being with her own hopes and dreams. Rikuo and Akiko's friendship is a testament to the power of human connection, and it shows that even in a world where androids and humans are often separated, it is possible for them to find common ground and build meaningful relationships.
