Fired? But I Maintain All the Software! (Manga) Volume 1

Ai Sato is the sole engineer maintaining her company’s internal systems. It’s too bad being the linchpin who keeps it all running won’t protect her from sudden layoffs. Apparently, the new CEO doesn’t approve of cosplaying at work.

Depressed and jobless, Ai unexpectedly reunites with her childhood friend, Kenta Suzuki, who makes her an offer. His startup, True Coding School, provides personalized lessons to people struggling under the stress of modern society, and he wants her to join his team.

With every passionate—and sometimes unconventional—lecture, Ai finds herself giving her students a renewed sense of purpose. Who knew that coding lessons could change so many lives?
