When the TV anime began airing, we interviewed the original author, Yu Shimizu, and asked him about how the work came to be and his expectations for the anime from his unique perspective as the author.

The handsome store clerks and the splendid cast that plays them are the talk of the town, but the guest characters that appear in each episode are also fascinating.
In one of the stories, the good-looking waitstaff offered solutions to customers' problems, attracting an increasing number of customers who wanted to take a break at the café and ask for advice on their problems. The characters appearing in this film as guest characters are overwhelmingly female. And the cast members who play these guest characters include Hibiki Yamamura, Ayaka Sengi, Ayako Kawasumi, Mamiko Noto, and many other splendid voice actors, and among these fascinating characters, there are sure to be some you will be interested in.
Even if you have never seen this work before, we hope you will give it a try.
