While I must admit that *Surplus Princess* is not as serious as *The Legend of the Blue Sea*, I would still recommend it as an interesting show.
Kusaka Haru, a girl with no dreams or goals, finds herself inexplicably drawn to Fujiwara Rio, a customer she meets at her part-time job. Acting on impulse, she visits the share house where he lives and tells him she wants to move in. Rio agrees, but with one condition: “Don’t fall in love with me as a man.” Even as Haru grows increasingly aware of her deepening feelings for him, she resolves to keep them hidden in order to stay by his side. But the two share an ambiguous yet strangely comfortable bond — and it’s about to quietly begin to shift.
All the gods will be leaving before the last rain of doomsday. However, an ordinary human girl unexpectedly puts a dent in their plans to retreat thus causing the world to move towards the unknown. Based on the animistic mythology of the Amis tribe, the gods are no longer willing to bless the land that is plagued with environmental issues. One by one, the gods depart the world they once loved. A human girl discovers that the opportunity to reverse her destiny lies within herself and her guardian. Before the final day of judgment, a love story between human and god unfolds.
This drama is a love story between Kataoka Sakuya, a grim reaper who comes to the human world for the first time, and Mochizuki Nayuki, a woman who lost her father at a young age and has devoted her life to raising her only remaining family—her younger brother. As they meet, they gradually come to understand each other, and slowly, they begin to fall in love. However, a fate that will dramatically change their lives awaits them both…
