Hotaru no Hikari: It's Only A Little Light In My Life

Get ready to become familiar with the term 'himono onna.' It means 'dried fish woman' and describe a home-buddy woman who is a slob in private, does not take care of her place, drinks alcohol on her own and - is discovered as such by her manager who more or less moves in accidentally.

Hotaru and her manager are now sharing an apartment, but not sharing a table, refrigerator or wine. They are also not sharing the cheese it seems. Nonetheless, they are starting to share a few secrets, tips and history. In the meanwhile, Hotaru attracts the attention of the office's hip designer even more by supporting his idea and even goes one step, no two steps further. She has competition however.

Hotaru and Teshima seem to be getting closer. Hotaru even receives a small gift from Teshima. The latter does a good job redecorating and rejuvenating a favourite bakery. In the meantime, there is a playful ceremony to set up couples within the office and Hotaru may have accidentally helped her manager's divorce along - much to his chagrin.
