Hoshimura is a typical “salary-man” in a Japanese insurance company. No matter what he does in life, he can’t ever seem to succeed. His sales performance at the company is the lowest, has no relationship history and is still a virgin at the age of 29. His only friend in life is his colleague at work, Tsukino.
One day, a very cute woman named Akiyama joins the company and Hoshimura falls for her. Moreover, Akiyama is a big fan of the superhero Wild Virginia, of whom Hoshimura has loved since childhood. On the day before his 30th birthday, the staff at the company throw a welcome party for Akiyama at a local bar. There Akiyama is sexually harassed by their boss, Koikeay. Hoshimura tries to protect Akiyama, but gets beaten up badly instead. Then, out of nowhere a baboon creature appears, and Hoshimura and Akiyama flee, but as the clock ticks down to his 30th birthday, Hoshimura starts to feel strange powers brewing inside of him, and a connection to the mythical baboon creature.
