About
Contrary to its flashy exterior, the interior is a minimalist, quiet space — Medaka Specialty Shop "Arakuma." It is a shop that deals exclusively in medaka ricefish. Guest is a customer who happened to drop by. There, they encounter the shop manager, Rikiya Arakuma, a man with a massive 190cm, 100kg frame and a terrifying face. However, Arakuma's true identity is a man who loves medaka far too much. From breeds and husbandry to breeding, diseases, and selective improvement, his knowledge of medaka is world-class. "I ain't interested in nothin' but medaka." From the encounter between the blunt Arakuma and Guest, a strange and noisy daily life centered around medaka begins.
