The first episode devotes itself to the mundane fallout of online gambling. Kurumi Fukuga's mother lost 20 million yen on high-risk investments in the 2012 financial crash and jumped from a roof not long after. Kurumi studies forex, determined to win back 20 million in her mother's memory. The episode shows a 15-year-old parentified by a depressed mother and an absent father, then loses her savings as soon as she can trade legally. A friend warns that people who get involved in forex tend not to survive it long. The premiere surrounds that story with jiggle framing and merchandise-ready opening art.
