Obsessive dagashi devotee
Unpredictably eccentric
Outwardly refined and elegant
Burning with passionate enthusiasm
Hotaru Shidare is the sole daughter of a leading dagashi industry tycoon, who arrives in a quiet rural town on a dual mission: to recruit the legendary confectionery artisan Kokonotsu's father, and to persuade the son himself to take over the family business. Her encyclopedic knowledge of traditional Japanese snacks borders on obsession, and despite her polished, aristocratic appearance, she never hesitates to break into theatrical gestures and wild antics whenever she seizes an opportunity to evangelize the wonders of dagashi.
