Toru Kirishima is a 28 year old Lieutenant for the Sakuragi Yakuza, known as Sakuragi’s Demon for his brutality. After letting a business meeting descend into a fight, his employer, Kazuhiko Sakuragi, decides to teach him responsibility and makes Kirishima guardian for his 7-year-old daughter, Yaeka. Kirishima has no experience of children, so he takes his frustration out on his long-suffering subordinate, Kei Sugihara. While walking Yaeka to school, they are followed by men from the meeting, but Kirishima is able to beat them without Yaeka noticing. Yaeka becomes noticeably sadder, even when visited by her aunt Kanami. Worried, Kirishima searches her room and finds an invitation for parents to visit the school and realizes, since Kanami has work and Kazuhiko can’t be seen in public, Yaeka has no family she can invite. Convinced by Kanami, Kirishima visits the school as her guardian, cheering her up and she starts being able to talk to him normally. Yaeka wants to give Kazuhiko a picture she drew of their family crest, but she is unsure, until Kirishima tells her he was unsure about visiting the school, but he is glad he did. Reassured, Yaeka gives Kazuhiko the picture, making him very happy and bringing Kirishima and Yaeka closer together. Kazuhiko reminisces about Yaeka’s mother, Miyuki, who is in the hospital.

Kirishima locates the thugs, but due to worrying about Yaeka, releases them with a minor beating. Returning home Kirishima finds Yaeka asleep, having tried to stay awake until he came home. Kirishima finds he actually likes someone waiting for him. Kirishima is surprised when Yaeka asks him what his mother was like. Kazuhiko reveals Miyuki has been in a coma for years and he stopped taking Yaeka to visit her mother as she would cry every time. Yaeka insists she doesn’t want to see Miyuki. So using simple language Kirishima is able to convince Yaeka her mother loves her so much she refuses to go to heaven. Yaeka agrees to visit and Kirishima remembers that, before falling into her coma, Miyuki asked him to care for both Yaeka and Kazuhiko until she woke up.

In the hospital shop, Kirishima spots Toichiro Aoi, a former yakuza member who quit after becoming a parent. Toichiro’s 6-year-old son, Koki, develops a crush on Yaeka. Worried, Yaeka claims Kazuhiko isn’t mad at Toichiro for leaving the family, Toichiro tearfully promises to visit some time. Kanami is amused as she knows Toichiro trained Kirishima and Kirishima has unconsciously followed Toichiro's parenting style by caring for Yaeka. Returning home, they come across a stray kitten and a girl named Hanada Ayumu, a runaway who stopped to care for the kitten. Yaeka decides to adopt the cat and names it Ohagi. Ayumu can return home. Ohagi causes chaos when she causes two Yakuza members to break a valuable antique. Kazuhiko is furious but relents when Yaeka and Ohagi ask him to.

In the end they create numerous videos under the name Team Cherry portraying typical Yakuza activities as amusing pastimes. Sugihara frets when other video makers start trying to discover their identities, so they post a video claiming they are fake yakuza who work for a film company, apologise for misleading their viewers, and stop posting new videos. This backfires when their supposed honesty makes them even more popular. Kazuhiko insists they start recording songs which turns into a live concert, appearing on television and even attending official functions to meet foreign royalty. Kirishima becomes so busy he can’t take Yaeka to and from school anymore and she misses him.
