Editor Ritsu Onodera keeps slogging through the shoujo manga department at Marukawa Publishing under his demanding boss Masamune Takano, the same man, once surnamed Saga, who was Onodera's first love in high school. This second season of the BL series picks up with Takano set on making Onodera fall for him a second time, while Onodera insists that what they had is long over and keeps his distance. Around them, the Emerald editing team pushes through another cycle of monthly deadlines.
