Description:

"Soko wo Nantoka" introduces Rakuko Kaise, a young woman who grew up in poverty and is determined to escape her circumstances. Her ambition leads her to pursue a career in law, driven by the desire for financial stability and a better life. Rakuko's path through law school is arduous, as she single-handedly supports herself by working long hours in a bar. Her perseverance pays off when she finally passes her challenging bar exam.

With her new qualification, Rakuko secures a position at a small law office. However, this new chapter takes an unexpected turn. Instead of high-earning cases, she finds herself drawn into complex legal battles that offer little monetary reward. Through these demanding, often pro bono cases, Rakuko begins a profound transformation. She slowly sheds her initial money-driven motivation, realizing the deeper responsibilities and ethical demands of her profession. As she navigates challenging circumstances and advocates for those in need, Rakuko evolves from a newly qualified attorney into a truly dedicated and compassionate lawyer.
