On Christmas Eve, four-year-old Miri Unasaka arrives in Tokyo completely alone, in search of her father. The bright lights and merry atmosphere guide Miri to a big hotel and a man with a delicious-looking cake.

Two hitmen become accidental dads, juggling bullets and bedtime stories in neon‑lit Tokyo.
When a lone four‑year‑old wanders into a Tokyo hotel on Christmas Eve, she stumbles straight into a hit‑job aimed at a notorious yakuza boss. The target? Two seasoned contract killers—Kazuki and Rei—who have spent years suppressing the ghosts of their violent pasts and keeping any hint of family at arm’s length. The child, Miri Unasaka, is clueless about the danger she’s in, but her bright curiosity and unfiltered joy quickly turn the assassins’ world upside down. Instead of delivering her to a distant mother, Kazuki finds himself oddly protective, relishing the chance to play dad, while Rei, whose heart has been locked shut for years, reluctantly lets the girl chip away at his defenses. What follows is a chaotic blend of gun‑fueled action and slap‑stick parenting. Kazuki and Rei scramble to keep Miri safe, all while dodging rival syndicates, handling school drop‑offs, and learning that diaper changes are far more perilous than any covert operation. Their partnership evolves from cold professionalism to a makeshift family, proving that even the deadliest killers can be humbled by a child’s laughter. Amid the neon‑lit streets and relentless missions, the trio discovers that love—no matter how unconventional—can be the most dangerous and rewarding assignment of all.
Two professional assassins unexpectedly become caregivers to a four-year-old girl, balancing dangerous underworld jobs with heartwarming parenting moments. The series blends stylized action violence with emotional themes of found family and childhood trauma.
