Here’s a little introduction for the cast members for “Sore Dake ga Neck”
The main character Muto works a part-time job at this strange convenience store called “hot hot mart”.
He is described as a gentle young man who is easily liked by animals and cannot handle trouble on his own.
He is also a serious and hard worker who is trusted by the store’s manager and employees.
Hot Hot Mart’s Store manager is not good at communication. Instead of talking with the eyes of others, they just talk unilaterally.
If you are nervous due to extreme social phobia, you will get an eerie smile. Therefore, after adulthood, he always hides his mouth with a mask.
Adam is another part-time worker at the Hot Hot Mart. As an international student, he has been in Japan for less than a year, so he often doesn’t understand the language.
Since he was little, he had been disciplined to not say anything about people that may be rude. Therefore, even if he feels something is wrong with a person’s appearance, he does not say it.
Nekomaru is a stray cat that lives around Hot Hot Mart. He doesn’t care much for anyone except for Muto.
Through his involvement with Muto, he becomes an idol cat of Hot Hot Mart.
