When a self-confessed geek saves a young woman from being harassed by a drunk on the commuter train, little does he know that he's about to turn his life around. He relates his story to the people he knows best—anonymous users on the 2ch online bulletin board—and mentions that she sent him a set of teacups as a thank-you gift. But they're not just any teacups—they're the high-priced Hermes brand, and anyone who can afford those means business! Suddenly "Train Man" finds himself courting "Miss Hermes" and stepping beyond the world he knows: picking out nice clothes, going on dates, eating fine food. With an entire online community cheering him on, can this perennial loser win the heart of a high-class woman?
