Kinji lands in a fantasy world and immediately realizes the real monster isn't the dungeon, it's his boss. The comedy comes from watching him use every tired office worker trick in the book to survive a literal black company, turning isekai's heroic journey into a clock-out-early speedrun. The show knows the fantasy is just window dressing for what actually kills you: a soul-crushing job with no escape route, and somehow that's funnier than any magic system.
Kinji has perfected the art of avoiding work through smart investments, but his golden ticket gets punched the moment he's transported to a fantasy world. There's just one catch: he arrives in debt and is forced to labor for an evil mining company that cares only about profit and nothing for its workers' safety. Stuck in what amounts to servitude, Kinji can't simply walk away or slack off like he used to. His only option is to find some angle that lets him survive this corporate nightmare without actually working himself to death. Refusing to accept his lot, he dreams up get-rich-quick schemes and builds connections with people in this new world, all in the hope of escaping the grind and winning back his financial freedom. The result is a comedic fantasy about a born slacker trying to outwit an exploitative employer.
