Hidemasa Otani (47 years old) is called the charisma of a cafe in Ura-Shibuya. The management method that earns annual sales of 2 billion yen is unusual. Otani will create a cafe that caters to the 5% of customers who come to Shibuya, not the majority. Starting with Udagawa Cafe, there are goats at Sakuragaoka Cafe, sexy paintings and objects at FLAMINGO, and exotic cafes such as BOHEMIA. chair. At first glance, it seems to go backwards in time. However, for some reason, it attracts a total of 100,000 visitors a year. In Shibuya, which is undergoing massive redevelopment, we follow Hidemasa Otani's insatiable challenge to create a place where people can feel comfortable, and to continue to convey the charm of the city from the back alleys of Shibuya. What path will he take...
