Plot

An unnamed 14-year-old girl who is physically abused by her parents, sexually abused by her teacher and bullied by her classmates decides to commit suicide, but is stopped by an unnamed man who always wears a mask. She decides to run away to live with the man and begins calling him Elder Brother or "Onii-san", which some translators translate to "Mister". He gives her the name Sachi, meaning happiness. The police treat her disappearance as a kidnapping, and begin searching for the two. They make a pact that if they can escape from the police they will get married, but if they get caught they will end their life.

Characters
Mister (お兄さん, Onii-san)
Portrayed by: Shuhei Uesugi[1]
This character whose name and age are unknown is a man who always covers his face with a mask, and is notable for his silver-colored hair. He first appears as Sachi's "stalker"—he took a lot of picture of her and put them on a wall at his home. After saving Sachi from committing suicide, he decided to give Sachi a chance to "taste happiness" while doubting whether what he does—kidnapping her—is the right thing to do.
Sachi (幸)
Portrayed by: Inori Minase (TVCM),[3] Anna Yamada (TV series)[1]
Sachi is a 14-year-old victim of her abusive parents and was bullied by her friends at school. Sick of her own life, she decides to end her own life before the "older brother" saved her life. Her current name is given by the older brother, and the kanji of her name comes from the word "happiness," which Sachi always adored.

gollark: 🌵 !
gollark: Anyway, this is... somewhat orthogonal to the main point here: that advertising is almost certainly affecting you a bit.
gollark: So if you buy a phone which got 4.5 stars or something, then you see another cheaper one with equally good reviews, you'll send the old one back...?
gollark: How will you actually know if the Voxel was going to work the same as the oPhone, though?
gollark: Let's imagine you're buying a phone or something. Imagine there are two types of phone: the Orange oPhone XIIX+MAX and the Goggle Voxel 4. They might work exactly the same for you, unrealistically, but the Orange oPhone is more expensive. You were influenced a bit because of advertising, and because of that bought an oPhone over a Voxel.
