Synanthrope

One day, a robber bursts into the burger joint where the sullen college student Tonari (Koshi Mizukami), the temperamental troublemaker Mizumachi (Anna Yamada) and six others work.

Synanthrope's eight employees throw a welcome party for their new coworker, Shizawa. While the group enjoys a follow-up round of karaoke, Tonari unknowingly passes by the robber from the day before.

When the group is told the shop is closing down, Mizumachi says she wants to run it herself. Everyone seems in favor, except for Kanna, who says she's quitting.

Tonari and company reopen Synanthrope but have trouble getting customers. Meanwhile, Orita picks the next target in his quest to find The Woodpecker.

Mizumachi hasn't been going home and is found sleeping in the back room with the account books open. Tonari tries to chat her up in the hopes of asking her out to lunch, but things don't go well.

Tonari skips out on work, lost in his own thoughts and convinced that Mizumachi fell for the man she encountered at the concert.
