About "Way Too Kawaii!":
Nankichi works for a mega-publishing company and is the star of the literary department, when he finds himself unexpectedly transferred to a fashion magazine. From now on, it's all 20-denier tights, frilly skirts, rainbow spaghetti, and bubble tea, as he struggles to find his way in this new world dominated by strong-willed women. But as he witnesses the professionalism of the models and stylists, he gradually becomes inspired by his new job, and romance even blossoms. The series' aesthetic is driven by kawaii, the candy-coloured cuteness that characterises the youth culture of so-called Harajuku girls - all seen through the eyes of a man discovering this for the first time.
