I'm a D-list Handler

Ordered by Saigawa to find new talent, Miwa scouts aspiring actress Saki. Unfortunately, her small voice and inability to greet people makes her unpopular with the other talents. She even snubs an audition Miwa worked hard to get! Miwa confronts her head on with harsh words, and Saki finally opens her heart, eventually displaying her talent as an actress...

A talent is hinting at an agency transfer on social media, and Miwa is ordered to find out who it is. She suspects top star Yuji Sanada, who is clashing with his manager, but the agency and Miwa's job are doomed if he leaves. She must prevent the transfer at all costs, but along the way, she and Sanada become closer, and she finds out a surprising truth...

Miwa is given a new mission: to poach a famous child actor from another agency. He turns out to be a troublemaker, but Miwa suspects there's more to it. She teams up with Santa to investigate and finds an unexpected truth. Meanwhile, Yuji suddenly approaches Miwa, expressing interest in her past. She can't let him discover the truth, or she'll be fired! What is Yuji's true intention...?

Santa, a manager of Dept. 4, is one half of the comedy duo Village Maus! Though he and his partner Mizoguchi gained some attention as high school comedians, they are now virtually inactive. Miwa is tasked with the harsh mission to disband them, but moved by the duo's passion and bond, she pushes them to make a comeback through a comedy contest.

Yuji's sudden confession flusters Miwa. Meanwhile, meddlesome actress Masae makes an "unnecessary comment" over the radio, sparking a hate campaign against herself on social media. Saigawa orders Miwa to boost publicity by fanning the flames further, but Yuji is pulled into the line of fire. With his commercial contract at stake, Miwa and Dept. 4 must make things right and save Masae.
