About And Yet The Town Moves

Looking for background on And Yet The Town Moves (Soredemo Machi wa Mawatteiru)? This comedy, slice of life and seinen series by Shaft (2010) starts out like this. What the story covers: Hotori Arashiyama loves mysteries, but there's one she just can't solve: why does the solution to one problem inevitably seem to lead to another? Like how when Hotori has to start working at the Seaside Maid Cafe after school to pay off a debt and her friend Toshiko fortunately knows exactly how a Maid Cafe should be run.

Next up: Which is fortunate since Hotori has no clue. Except that, unfortunately, Toshiko has no interest in working at the cafe—until she discovers that Hotori's childhood ally Hiroyuki is a regular. Which SEEMS fortunate.

In a comedy series like this, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. It will appeal most to viewers who want something light between heavier series.
