A convenience store where the new guy has no face and a cat that shouldn't exist keeps showing up. The three-minute episodes move so fast you're solving mysteries before you realize they're mysteries. By the finale, you're not sure if you watched a comedy about lazy retail workers or something genuinely unsettling pretending to be one.
At Hot Hot Mart, a convenience store that seems to turn up everywhere, the staff look perfectly ordinary. They drift through half-productive chatter, stay glued to their devices, and put up with a manager who does as little as possible. Not everything at the store is what it appears to be, though. Muto, a mysterious clerk whose face is always concealed, is shadowed wherever he goes by an ominous cat. The comedy pokes at the way people communicate today, with clerks who never quite talk properly, while slowly working toward the secret behind Muto. Twelve short episodes mix workplace humor with a thread of mystery.
