Fall 2017. Nephew Takafumi went to the hospital to visit his uncle who had just woken up from a seventeen year coma. However, it seems that he has lost his mind as he claims that during all this time he has been in another world called “Great Bahamar” and even seems to speak a foreign language. But everything changes when his uncle, an ordinary human, shows him that he has learned to use magic in the other world. Realizing that the magic his uncle is using is absolutely real, Takafumi suggests that he use his skills to become a successful YouTuber. Takafumi and his uncle now take care of him and begin to embrace the streaming life while his uncle tells him about his life in the other world from time to time.
