Takao Ameku (Kanna Hashimoto), a brilliant but eccentric doctor, leads the General Diagnostics Department at Teniikai General Hospital, run by the Ameku family. Takao is well-known throughout the hospital for her ability to diagnose and solve even the most difficult medical mysteries, but often struggles to connect with others and conform to social norms due to her autism. When former surgeon Yu Takanashi (Shohei Miura) joins the department, he's baffled by Takao's behavior, but quickly realizes that her diagnostic abilities are unmatched. Yu's keen emotional intuition contrasts with Takao's blunt communication style, allowing them to help patients even better than before.

Diagnosis: Suspicious

Serial bookworm Waka Kashiwagi (Yurika Nakamura) has a problem: her collection of books has grown too large to fit in a regular house! But when she bumps into high school classmate Shinobu Kamijo (Ryosuke Hashimoto), it looks like Waka may have found a solution. Now a successful scientific researcher, Shinobu has a large residence that can also house Waka – and her vast array of books. Waka agrees, although the duo have a history: in high school, Shinobu kissed Waka while she was reading in the school library, but moved overseas with his family shortly after. Unbeknownst to Waka, Shinobu still has feelings for her. Will Waka’s love for literature leave no room for romance – or could her new living arrangements lay the foundations for a new relationship?
