Hashimoto, a hardworking employee, spends his entire day at his job, tirelessly redoing work for his boss, who is never satisfied with his efforts. His only respite from the constant pressure and criticism is an online game, where he connects with his friend Uma. However, Hashimoto doesn't realize that his demon boss and Uma are one and the same!

The manga, set in a nerdy workplace, follows the daily struggles of Hashimoto as he navigates the complexities of his job and his friendship with Uma. With over 300 pages in one volume, the manga offers a captivating blend of comedy, drama, and romance, appealing to fans of Cherry Magic!, Candy Color Paradox, and Yagi the Bookshop Goat.

The story revolves around Hashimoto, a perfectly average salaryman who works a repetitive office job. He is constantly under the scrutiny of his boss, who demands perfection in everything he does. Despite his best efforts, Hashimoto's work is never good enough, and he feels frustrated and defeated.

However, Hashimoto's online gaming world provides him with a sanctuary from the pressures of his real-life job. He connects with Uma, a kind-hearted and supportive friend who listens to his troubles and offers him a sympathetic ear. The duo make plans to meet in person, but when they finally do, Hashimoto is horrified by a revelation that will change his entire life.

The manga explores themes of identity, friendship, and the consequences of hiding one's true self. It sheds light on the power of online connections and the importance of being true to oneself, even in the face of adversity.

Overall, "The Yearning Fox Lies in Wait" is a must-read for fans of BL (boy's love) manga who enjoy relatable characters, engaging storylines, and a touch of romance. With its captivating artwork and compelling narrative, the manga offers a refreshing and entertaining escape from the everyday pressures of life.
