Description:

Rental Kyuuseishu is a unique and innovative rental service born out of a new movement in the rental industry, offering help to those with nowhere else to turn. When desperate clients call with impossible demands, the service sends a rental saviour to resolve their troubles for a limited time. However, the saviours are far from typical heroes. Akenabe Yugo, a good-natured middle-aged man burdened with a huge debt, a wife, and a child, is forced to take on this commission-based, confidential job just to make extra income. Working alongside him is Aoi Denjiro, a massive show-off who absolutely craves attention. Together, this unlikely duo tackles bizarre requests and handles confidential crises under tight deadlines. This engaging comedy-drama explores the chaotic lives of these rental saviours as they balance bizarre client demands with their own personal struggles. Watch how a debt-ridden father and an attention-seeking partner redefine what it means to be a hero in the modern world.
