Synopsis
A genie named Kayaguchiya Integrated Circuits III, known as Kiss, is released from an aspirin bottle in which he has been stuck for fourteen years. Jane, who wanted to end her life in peace, finds herself with a genie instead. At first her luck seems to improve, until the apocalypse rears its head. The comic fantasy plays on the old tales of bottled djinn as a modern Aladdin, since freeing Kiss after so long is bound to cause trouble.
