Chie, a sunny and lively fifth grader in Naniwa, runs her family's horumonyaki restaurant by herself instead of her father, Tetsu, who loves gambling as ever before. The comical and cheerful everyday life of the Takemoto family, including Tetsu, Kotetsu and the strong-willed Chie, who complains about being the "most unfortunate girl in Japan", and the lovable old town residents, including two yakuza gangsters and Chie's classmates, comes alive again!
