The story begins by the introduction of five seemingly very different young men and their reasons for being at the Energy Bio Corporation building: janitor Satoru Mashiko (Satoshi Ohno), motorcycle courier Nozomu Got (Jun Matsumoto), coffee shop employee Akira Tanada (Masaki Aiba), insurance salesman Yukio Tomizawa (Sho Sakurai) and security center employee Shji Yamagiwa (Kazunari Ninomiya).
