Introduction
High school first-year Chio Miyamo attends Sameshima Academy, an extremely ordinary school. Her motto of sorts is "to be below average." She's always tried to have a normal school life of not standing out, but for some reason, she encounters a variety of obstacles on her way to school.
Her childhood friend who seeks to escape from otaku-dom Manana Nonomura and top of the student body pecking order Yuki Hosokawa are just two of the individuals Chio will encounter, along with a number of nameless citizens as she attempts to commute. With her abundance of (useless) knowledge from hours of playing Western video games, will Chio be able to make it to school safely? It's time to commute!
