Hige-san is a portly, mustachioed middle-aged office worker at a "web-based company" who loves marshmallows--especially those produced by one specific company: Tabekko Marshmallows. His attractive younger female coworker Wakabayashi-san is infatuated with him and blatantly flirts with him all the time--often offering him marshmallows as an excuse to get them into compromising situations--but since she has NoSocialSkills and he's too gentlemanly and ObliviousToLove to notice, HilarityEnsues whenever they're together.

Added DiffLines:

* AlternateUniverse[=/=]HighSchoolAU: The author also made a universe with Hige as a school teacher and Wakabayashi as his student, titled ''Wakabayashi-kun Won't Let Me Nap''. She [[HotForTeacher still pines for him]] in this universe.
* AstonishinglyAppropriateAppearance: Hige is a Tabeko marshmallow fanatic, and it's very hard not to think that he would be, given that his features are soft and roundish, and his color scheme is primarily white like a marshmallow.


Added DiffLines:

* ThroughHisStomach: Wakabayashi knows she can't woo Hige through normal means, but she does know that he goes gaga for marshmallows, so she lures him in with those.

!! Marshmallow-soft tropes:

* BabiesMakeEverythingBetter: Wakabayashi-san wants a baby, even to the point of asking for one 'as a gift' when inviting Hige-san over to her house...
** In [=EP12=], Wakabayashi-san fantasizes about taking care of a baby Hige-san in a dream.
* BigBeautifulMan[=/=]ChubbyChaser: Hige-san isn't quite a ballerina, but Wakabayashi-san still wants to be with him.
* DoubleEntendre: Episode two has Hige-san stuck in the rain, calling the office, with Wakabayashi-san next to him. Of course she decides to offer him a marshmallow while being euphemistic about it, so the boss will misunderstand.
--> "I'm on the phone at the moment, I'll gobble it up later..."
* EvolvingCredits[=/=]EyeCatch Each episode ends with a song and some poses of Wakayabashi-san (usually in a bikini) as a background; also, usually, Higi-san and Wakyabashi-san (and for some episodes, a coworker) interact in some way.
* FirstKiss: An accidental one between Hige-san and Wakayabashi-san's brother, at a company picnic.
--> "My first kiss tasted of marshmallow."
* LoveTriangle: Happens in a couple of episodes with a new coworker.
* MarshmallowHell: When moving between subway cars in one episode, Wakabayashi-san and Hige-san end up getting caught ''between'' the cars when it starts moving. This also results in Wakabayashi-san with her face buried in Hige-san's chest; she doesn't even attempt to move away for the entire remaining trip. When Wakabayashi-san arrives home later, she goes straight to her room to bury her face in some pillows in an attempt to recreate the experience, to the confusion of her brother.
--> "What are you doing?"
--> "... Nothing."
* MistakenForGay: The employees of Tabekko tend to call him 'fairy'. This may be because he tends to take factory tours repeatedly, by himself, with no known girlfriends. (Through the first 12 episodes so far he's shown to be more of a clueless asexual, but he may just not be trying to look for a relationship of any sort.)
* RelationshipUpgrade: What the desired outcome is, for Wakabayashi-san. [[spoiler:They do get together later on in the comics, however, but their relationship is more or less the same as it was at the start.]]
* SoundEffectBleep: Used in episode 10 when Wakayabashi curses out Mioko.
* ThoseTwoGuys: The two Tabekko employees seen so far (as of the first 12 episodes).
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Tabbeko marshmallows.
* UmbrellaOfTogetherness: In episode two.
* UnrequitedLove: On Wakabayashi's part, so far, as part of a hoped-for RelationshipUpgrade.
