BANANA-_-BENZ
Genre: Rom-Com / Slice of Life / Streaming Culture
Key Themes: Honesty vs. Image, Proximity vs. Distance, The "Real" Person behind the Avatar.
The Pitch:
Zen (ZEN_ITH) is the internet's most brutally honest streamer. With 1.8 million subscribers, he's famous for having zero filter, roasting bad games, and refusing to play by the industry's rules. His life is loud, chaotic, and exactly how he likes it.
His childhood friend, Hori, is his anchor. A shy, "comfy" streamer who has loved him for years, she is content staying in his shadow-until the "glitch" happens.
Shiori Amamiya, the nation's "Perfect Idol," moves into the high-security apartment right next to Zen's. Desperate to learn how to be "real" for an acting role, she latches onto Zen, the most unscripted person she knows.
Now, Hori is stuck 30 minutes away by train while the most beautiful girl in Japan is just one wall away from the boy she loves. In a world where everyone is performing for a camera, the war for Zen's heart will be fought Off-Air.
