Satou is a 22-year-old college dropout who has become a recluse...that is, until he meets Misaki, a mysterious young girl who invites him to join her special "project." Slowly Satou comes out of his reclusive shell, and his hilarious journey begins, filled with mistaken identity, panty shots, Lolita complexes, and an over-protective mother!
