Synopsis
of CITY
From the
creator of Nichijou, this surreal series revolves around a penniless college
student, Midori Nagumo, who lives in an ordinary town filled with very ordinary
people. And as this reckless girl runs around, she sets the town in motion.
Midori
is in a bind. She's in debt and her landlady is trying to kick her out for
unpaid rent. Her best friend has refused to lend her money since she caught on
to her tricks. Maybe a little bullying will help. Or a little theft? Neither is
sustainable. Maybe getting a job would fix things… But working means less time
for fun adventures in the big city…
