Plot
Ryosuke Matoba is a passionate guy who works at the prestigious nightclub for women, “Romeo,” in Kabuki-cho, Shinjuku. His only goal is to become the #1 “host” there. In reality though, most of the time he serves as the assistant to other hosts. What’s worse, his sales figures are always the lowest. Still, his pure-hearted and honest personality helps comfort the emotionally hamstrung women who come to the club. Will Ryosuke be able to conquer the city that never sleeps and become the yaoh (king of the night)? This is the story of young hosts working in a nightclub for women in the neon-blazing Kabuki-cho. Every week, Ryosuke comes across female customers with interesting episodes and clashes with Seiya - currently ranking #1 in Romeo - and his group.
