What is the most valuable thing in the world? Of course, friendship! Friends should help not only each other but also everyone who wants to, while at the same time reminding of the ancient principle "a favor for a favor"… This is exactly what the mysterious "Otogi Academy Mutual Aid Club" does, each member playing a character from world culture while solving the problems of classmates. And although Japanese high‑school students have many problems, real enthusiasts work in the "mutual aid cashier," working with such zeal that obstacles on the way to solving questions can only be pitied! The club"s main striking force is the tandem of the loud girl Reiko Okami and her miniature partner Ringo Akai, nicknamed Red Riding Hood. Together with the newly joined intern Reisi Morino, who is also a fan of the main heroine, the girls tirelessly solve the problems of Otogi students, carrying out all new assignments from the clever club president. But why does every adventure story of Reiko and her friends resemble another fairy‑tale plot at its core? Because a fairy tale is a lie, but it hints.
