It’s been a year since former top-chef Nobuyuki Yazawa (Ryohei Otani) and his partner, Shinobu Senke (Rena Takeda), opened their bar, Nobu, in a deserted alley in Kyoto. With the front entrance of the bar mysteriously connected to the world of Aiteria, a parallel universe reminiscent of medieval Europe, Nobuyuki and Shinobu have had to overcome several unexpected obstacles. But having successfully done so, the bar is thriving.

Drawn to Nobu for its delicious food and its renowned beer, Toriaezu Nama, people from all over Aiteria flock to the bar. But not all patrons of Nobu are reputable. Drawn by her love of alcohol and sweets, a woman by the name of Ingrid (Miki Mizuno) darkens the door of Nobu. With the appearance of a witch, Ingrid catches the eye of everyone she meets, which soon starts rumors flying. Catching wind of a witch at Nobu, Archbishop Rodrigo (Satoru Matsuo) springs into action, determined to bring her and her associates in before any can escape.

Having narrowly escaped trouble with the law last year, Nobuyuki and Shinobu aren’t ready for another showdown with powerful officials. But can they let a seemingly innocent woman be taken from their establishment without a fight?

Somewhere in Kyoto, on some out-of-the-way street not often frequented by visitors, there sits a bar by the name of Nobu. While most people would pass this bar without giving it a second thought, those familiar with the establishment know it possesses a rather strange secret. For the front entrance of Nobu is connected to an alternate world, a world known by its residents as Aiteria.

How Nobu and a world reminiscent of medieval Europe became connected is the secret of Nobuyuki Yazawa (Ryohei Otani). Once a chef at a successful high-end restaurant, Nobuyuki gave up that life to pursue a more peaceful existence. Now the owner of Nobu, Nobuyuki wants nothing more than to serve his customers the very best food and drink. Helping him manage the bar is Shinobu Senke (Rena Takeda), a pretty, brilliant young lady who certainly knows how to handle the bar’s lively, albeit sometimes unusual, patrons.

With customers from both Japan and Aiteria flocking to Nobu to enjoy its fine cuisine, the bar's business couldn’t be better. But with two worlds colliding at a single location, how long will this success last?

With the nation’s birth rate at an all-time low and the age of the country's population on a steady incline, the Japanese government is on the verge of a national crisis. In order to combat these worrisome statistics, the government has decided to implement the “Marriage Lottery Act”. Under this new law, all citizens between the ages of 25-39, who are single and have no children, are required to attend government planned blind dates. After randomly selecting men and women for these state sanctioned dates, each citizen must attend their appointed marriage interview. Though they’re not necessarily required to agree to the government proposed marriage. In fact, each citizen has the right to decline the government’s proposal twice. However, if a suitable match cannot be made by then, a third rejection automatically enlists the individual into two years of service on the Anti-terrorism Activities Support Team.

A twenty-six year old systems engineer, living alone in Tokyo, Tatsuhiko Miyasaka (Nomura Shuhei) was perfectly content with his single life. Suffering from some rather severe childhood trauma, life for Tatsuhiko was easier without other people in it. But now, thanks to this new law, Tatsuhiko finds himself forced to prepare for a date he never would have planned on his own. Meanwhile, another Tokyo resident, Nana Fuyumura (Rin Takanashi), finds herself in a very similar situation. Subject to the new law after a recent breakup with her boyfriend, Nana must now force herself back into the world of dating, or suffer the consequences. But what if she’s not ready?

Forced together by their government, Tatsuhiko and Nana have no choice but to participate in their mandated marriage interview. But can two total strangers truly be expected to find life-long happiness under such unorthodox circumstances?&nbsp;

The weapon that protected Joseon since its founding was the sword. It was always up to the sword to end the battle. However, a new rifle that flowed into Joseon during the time of enlightenment reversed such a notion. Ironically, the muzzle of the new rifle aims at the king and scholars who insist on enlightenment. To fight against it, Yoon Kang, the son of Joseon's best swordsman Park Jin Han, abandons his sword and confronts his enemy with a rifle. While the king was humiliated by the Chinese emperor and the people groaned in pain because of paying tributes, Park Yoon Kang appears as a gunman to revenge on the aristocrats who were preoccupied with protecting their power and wealth.
