MS. ECHIZEN (Kumiko Aso) is a timid, thirty-something single female who pours out her daily stress in a manga (comic) that she draws every day almost as a diary. The main character of her manga is HARA-CHAN (Tomoya Nagase), a man who rambles on about his complaints to his friends in an izakaya bar. Always regreting that he can never speak up for himself and taking the blame for everything--he is the projection of Ms. Echizen's deepest feelings.

However, one day, Hara-chan's world begins to shake, and he learns "God up above is angry"... In a magical warp, Hara-chan finds himself taken out of his two dimensional world and into reality as a true man. Hara-chan ventures out to find "God" and happens to meet Ms. Echizen who is taken aback by Hara-chan, a strange man who suddenly appears before her. Will Ms. Echizen realize that he is indeed the person sketched in the pages of her daily manga and that she has manifested a man? What will be the fate of the two, when Hara-chan begins to fall in love with his so-called "God"... ?

Carry On! Hara-chan! is a fish-out-of-water fantasy with some unique Pygmalion essence that depicts a character brought into the real world and discovers the beauty of what it means to be a human, to live, and to fall in love. Hara-chan is played by Tomoya Nagase, a top singer in Japan's pop band TOKIO, and Kumiko Aso as the beautiful Ms. Echizen. Aso is accredited for her acting career in Japan and she has swept away numerous domestic awards.
