People in his office have seen Taihei walking home and going shopping with a hot girl! His coworker comes over for a visit to see this so-called "sister" for himself.
Taihei comes home to a complete stranger: Umaru's public face. She's cleaned the apartment and hidden her games to be able to invite her classmate and neighbor, Ebina, over.
Umaru and Ebina discover that their appetites match, the council in Umaru's head furiously debates about the perfect snack, and Taihei tries to get Kirie excited for summer.
Umaru(16) is a renowned beautiful girl in public. A kind hearted, perfect sister with high scores and admired by everybody. At least that's what everyone believes...once she returns home she becomes...
Taihei and Umaru experiment with free time and personal space in their little apartment, and playing "The Game of Life" hits too close to home for them all.
In the Doma household, winter means lazy days beneath the kotatsu! Umaru reflects on her interesting year while Taihei tries to collect on a promise she made to him.
Umaru gets sick, but it's a good thing her germs are as lazy as she is! Sadly, her germs show her brother no mercy. Later, Taihei remembers a day at the arcade, 10 years ago.
Umaru, aka UMR, is a force to be reckoned with in the arcade. She's invited to participate in a fighting game championship only to bump into her school rival, Tachibana.
