Pardon the Intrusion, I'm Home! - Season 1

Rinko's blissful otaku life is torn down when her two neighbors assign her as a chef and pretend-girlfriend.

Satsuki is full of mystery... Usada and Rinko try to guess what his job is!

A trio of newbie mangakas are introduced and Satsuki's secrets are finally revealed! Maybe?

Usada needs to write about love. But how could he, if he's never even had a crush before?

Rinko and Satsuki need to put their fake relationship to the test with a fake date... But it feels so real?

Rinko realizes that she likes Satsuki, but doesn't know how to tell him. Usada tries to help, but then he...?!

The trio plans a Christmas dinner together but soon realizes they will all be busy that day.

Mao runs away from home after finding out that her dad is not her real dad?! She goes to the trio for help.

Rinko learns that Satsuki is a popular horror novelist. However, Satsuki stubbornly refuses to tell her his pen name. Meanwhile, Usada happens to realize that Satsuki might be Izumi Kanizawa, the author of "Yorn's Story," which once greatly influenced Rinko. Perhaps Satsuki is hiding his pen name from Rinko because "gods are not romantic interests"... And Usada stumbles upon a surprising truth.

Pome (Homoda), a rookie manga artist who secretly harbors feelings for his neighbor Rinko, is egged on by Hazuki and Corgi to put into action a plan that leverages his strengths as a "clumsy, dog-like guy." Rinko readily agrees to Pome's request for Valentine's Day chocolates as a reward if his submitted storyboard is approved. Rinko then devises a plan to give chocolates to Satsuki and Usada as well. Meanwhile, Pome's storyboard is harshly criticized by his editor, but the key to his comeback lies with Usada, who happens to be there. Will Pome's "dog strategy" be successful or not!?

Aware that Rinko dislikes scary stories, Satsuki had been writing his works with fewer horror elements. Concerned about this, Satsuki's editor, Fukaumi, contacted Rinko and told her that she was negatively impacting Satsuki's career as a writer, causing her great distress. Meanwhile, Satsuki, shaken by the situation, secluded himself in his study, but after being provoked by Usada, who said, "If you make Rinko sad, I'll take her," he shouted his feelings for Rinko in a voice that could be heard throughout the neighborhood. However, the sound of collapse was creeping closer to their happy life together...

When Fukaumi's actions ended the relationship between the three, Rinko blamed herself, and Usata was furious. But Satsuki suggested that they use this as an opportunity to return to the way they were before the rift formed. As she lived alone, Rinko reminisced about the happy days they had spent together, while Usata remained calm and composed. Meanwhile, Satsuki was trying to break through the wall that stood before him as a writer in order to reclaim his normal life with Rinko and the others.
