It follows Minoru Urayama, the first male member of the group, and other members of the 12th generation Kenkyūsei. Because the group's producer Yasushi Akimoto liked Minoru's hardworking attitude, he was placed in the center during the performances by the Kenkyūsei members.

Unwittingly, after he helped Hiroko pass her audition, he was selected by AKB48's producer Yasushi Akimoto to became a member of the group.

Only member Mayu Watanabe suspected that he was a boy, though she was convinced by his explanation that he looked like one because he worked in a butler cafe.
