Maria is a sweet country girl who goes to Tokyo to honor a favor for her late grandmother. Waiting for her at her destination--the Rosy Convenience Store in Masakigaoka--are the Tomekichi brothers, struggling with an increasingly semile grandfather, a clueless father, and a family business on the verge of bankruptcy. All seems hopeless, until Maria turns up on their doorstep, to the dismay of one brother in particular. To complicate matters, there are moody customers, ever-present food issues, and a shady inspector ready to strike at any moment.

Will Maria be able to save this little convenience store? Or is it doomed to fold?

A fun story that deals with life, love and lunch, "Maria, the Convenience Store Girl" will make you feel warm inside, and maybe even a bit hungry!

Since the old building is already being demolished, they have no choice but to "temporarily" move the office into Fuwa's new flat. The final complication arrives in the form of the new employee Izumi Hiyama, a high school dropout the boss has promised to take care of as a favour to her family. No landlords are willing to rent to a 15-year-old girl, so she too has to move into Fuwa's home/office.
