Three sisters live in the "Minami Residence": the strict and diligent older sister, Haruka; the airy, animated head, Kana; and the youngest, Chiaki, whose sharp tongue spares no one. Living without adult supervision, the sisters share the workload of the kitchen and laundry, as well as the occasional romantic adventure. From fighting chronic laziness to going out with friends, there's never a dull day at the Minami Residence.
