A guy runs from his genes straight into a temple full of the exact problem he's trying to escape. The comedy lands because everyone involved knows exactly how stupid this is, from the premise down to every reaction shot. Chemistry between the cast actually feels earned instead of manufactured, which means the romantic chaos doesn't feel like you're watching a checklist get ticked off.
Akemitsu has spent years running from his family's notorious reputation for chasing romance, throwing himself into work and study to escape his genes. When he spots Yuzuki one day and falls instantly head over heels, he realizes his strategy has failed spectacularly. Desperate to reclaim control and live a disciplined, monk-like existence, he heads to a nearby temple to train as a Buddhist monk and leave worldly temptation behind. The problem: the temple is actually a convent full of beautiful women, and Yuzuki herself is there to greet him. He also learns that his father borrowed a fortune from the nunnery and then ran off, so Akemitsu ends up working there to pay back the debt. Surrounded by three triplet sisters and two freeloaders, he tries his hardest to stay composed and celibate. What unfolds is a harem romantic comedy with slice-of-life and ecchi touches, built on the clash between his resolve and the impossible circumstances of temple life.
