The story
Kazushi Sudou is a university student who is visited by his two childhood friends, the sisters Ayane and Kotone Shirakawa.

Will the perverted Kazushi be able to remain indifferent to them both?
What it’s like
Bright, soft-edged cel animation set in ordinary domestic rooms, with a warm, slightly glossy palette and a bathroom that becomes the center of most of the action. The mood is playful and flirtatious rather than sombre: bickering, teasing dialogue, and a light comic rhythm punctuated by fan-service framing and a lot of nudity, with sexual content that is explicit and frequent. The sound leans on bright, upbeat incidental music and cheerful voice performances, with comic beats that stay in the foreground. The pacing is brisk and episodic, built around escalating awkward situations between the three characters, and the emotional register is affectionate and goofy, with the loyalty and history between childhood friends giving the teasing some warmth. There is no violence and no real menace, but the sexual content is adult in nature and should be expected from the first minutes. It suits a late-night watch alone or with other adults who want something light, flirtatious and sexually frank, and it is for viewers who enjoy adult-oriented romantic comedy in the anime tradition and are comfortable with explicit material.
