Ryouhei woke up in a hospital, having lost all his memories, even his own name.

He would end up living together with the three girls: the friendly Aoba, the reserved Akao, and the openly-hostile Kanae.

This is a remake of AXL’s 2007 title Koisuru Otome to Shugo no Tate, with new routes added for Yuuri and Setsuko. Senomoto Hisashi’s art has changed a bit over the years, while the cast has stayed pretty much the same aside from Yuuri (Nekoyashiki Mai). Of course, the graphics are now in widescreen full HD and compatible with Windows 10. I liked the original game when I played a bit of it after Otoboku. I guess they’re re-releasing it to appeal to those who weren’t around back then. Check it out if you haven’t played it!
Haruki was watching a stream of the extremely popular virtual net idol Kuzunoha Chitose when suddenly a lottery was held for all viewers. The reward was special rights to make any wish come true! He decided to give it a shot, and lo and behold, he was selected as the winner!
“I’ll be coming over, so wait right there♪”
At that moment his doorbell rang and Chitose herself was waiting at his front door. She handed him some mysterious pills.
“They’re pills that will make you invisible! Yay! Let me know how it goes~”
She left with a smile just as quickly as she had arrived, leaving him at a loss for words. Even though he had his doubts, he tried it out immediately and was surprised that it actually worked!
Next he snuck into the bath with his cousin Ame, who had been rather distant to him lately. While he was freely admiring her amazingly delicious developed body, she voiced her true feelings for him, causing him to unintentionally touch her. When he did so, the invisibility effect wore off!
She was obviously very angry at him, but still forgave him considering her feelings for him. When they checked the directions on the drugs, they found out that they can be used once a day and the effect disappears upon touching someone. Haruki was elated at the thrill of using it and potentially being found out, while Ame was determined to make him a normal person again.
