BLEND-S

## BLEND-S A kind girl whose natural glare looks menacing lands a job at a themed cafe where she must play the 'sadistic' waitress, joining a quirky crew each acting out a different persona. Maika Sakuranomiya is a sweet, hardworking girl cursed with a naturally fierce, intimidating glare that scares off potential employers. Her luck turns when an Italian cafe manager sees her menacing look as a perfect fit and hires her to play the "sadistic" waitress, a role where customers actually want to be glared at and bossed around. Joining her are coworkers assigned their own personas: the little-sister type, the cool elder-sister type, and more. As clumsy, good-natured Maika tries to embody cruelty against her gentle nature, the cafe fills with comedic mishaps, budding crushes, and warm friendship. A bright, cozy workplace comedy about playing a part and finding where you belong.
