Synopsis
The new anime will therefore feature characters that appear on the collectible stickers packaged with the snacks. The story takes place in a world where the value of Bikkuri-Man stickers is so high that they have to be transported in a money-carrying vehicle. There was also the famous theft case a year ago called the “300 million Bikkuri-Man sticker case”. One day, a part-time delivery man named Yamato becomes involved in a battle for stickers between two competing convenience stores. As such, Angel Mart, owned by store manager Phoenix, is famous for its easy-to-use glossy stickers. The Devil Store across the street also tries to attract Bikkuri-Man fans to their store. Ultimately, former companions are divided into allies and enemies, and the battle of destiny begins.
