A secret organization that prevents crime: “DA-Direct Attack”. And their all-female team of agents: “Lycoris”. This peaceful daily life is all thanks to these young girls. The elite Chisato Nishikigi is the strongest Lycoris agent of all time. Next to him is Takina Inoue, the talented but mysterious Lycoris. They work together at one of its branches – Café LycoReco.
Here, the orders this cafe receives are very diverse, from coffee and sweets to childcare, shopping, teaching Japanese to foreign students, etc. Those are mostly tasks Not suitable for Lycoris.
The free-spirited and optimistic pacifist, Chisato. And Takina is cold and efficient. The chaotic daily life of this mismatched duo begins!
