PLOT:
Kouta Oyamada is the protagonist of the story. He moves from the country to the city in his first year of high school, and on his first day of school, he discovers that the second year girl Chizuru Minamoto is actually a kitsune. He used to live with his grandfather before moving. Kouta generally has a mild personality and is indecisive. When he was younger, he almost drowned in a river and now has a fear of swimming. At his school, everyone either calls him the "Great Erotic King" or a "beast" because of the disgraceful acts Chizuru commits with him in public.

Despite his reluctance to engage in the 'intimate' acts that Chizuru desires, Kouta's feelings for her are genuine. One demonstration of this is that they are able to fuse together into a powerful being, which can only occur between a human and a kitsune when they share a deep emotional link. In this form, Kouta transforms into a black-furred five-tailed fox spirit.

Kanokon Esuii: The main character and his friends come to an isolated island in the name of extra lesson. One day, a girl suddenly appears in front of Kouta and tells him, "You might lose someone important to you in the near future...." "Lose someone important to me?" He can't forget what she said. At the same time, Tayura meets a mysterious girl in a cornfield. A mystery invites another mystery.... Will they be able to get out of the island safe and sound...?
