Iwaki Kyousuke and Katou Yoji, both established adult film actors, seek to leave their current profession. Unexpectedly, they receive invitations to audition for a new erotic movie. At the audition, the director surprises them by announcing that the lead role will be determined by their performance of a love scene together on the spot. The situation escalates when Katou takes a decisive action to ensure he can continue seeing Iwaki after the filming ends. How will Iwaki respond to Katou's impulsive move? A bonus one-shot is included: Volume 5: Fuyu no Semi (Winter Cicada, in three parts).
