Kanna Hijiriyama (Kyoko Yoshine) was a university student who dreamed of becoming an announcer. But on the fateful day of her vocal test, her father was found stabbed to death – with Kanna Hijiriyama the apparent killer. The case captivates the public, which wants to learn more about Kanna Hijiriyama’s motives for this brutal killing. Meanwhile, Yuki Makabe (Keiko Kitagawa) is a psychologist and writer. A publisher offers her the chance to write a book about Kanna Hijiriyama, and interview her to discover why she killed her father. Yuki Makabe accepts.

But when she begins preparing for the interview, she is stunned to learn that Kanna Hijiriyama’s court-appointed defense lawyer is no other than her own brother-in-law Anno Kasho (Tomoya Nakamura). The lawyer is a prickly and very direct individual – the polar opposite of his gentle brother (Yuki Makabe’s husband). What is more, she and Anno Kasho’s paths have crossed before. He warns her that Kanna Hijiriyama is a disturbed individual, and that Yuki Makabe could get hurt if she proceeds. Undeterred, Yuki Makabe goes ahead with the interview – even if doing so involves delving into the dark, both for herself and Kanna Hijiriyama. And the deeper she delves into the case, the closer her involvement with Anno Kasho becomes...

Kazuma Saito (Tomoya Nakamura) is a young man whose life was changed forever after he was involved in a traffic accident at elementary school. He has developed seven totally distinct personalities named after each day of the week. None of these personalities has any recollection of what the other did, and none can communicate with one another – save via sticky notes and a journal. While one is a fast-living rock band member with a penchant for alcohol, women, and cigarettes, the next is a shy, clean-living young man. Another is a budding sports enthusiast...and so on. The personalities are so different that they have their own shoes, toothbrushes, clothes, and desks.

But life gets complicated for all of them when one of their number – Wednesday – suddenly goes missing. Who will fill in for Wednesday? Will the role fall to Tuesday? Can there be a week without a Wednesday? The remaining personalities try to answer these questions and fix the problem before it threatens to consume them all. Tuesday looks into solutions that include an experimental surgery that could put an end to these problems once and for all – but is this risk really worth taking?
