TenPuru

Kugayama Akari is a high school student who loves traditional Japanese culture and dreams of becoming a manga artist. However, he struggles with a deep-seated aversion to women, stemming from his mother's absence and his father's obsessive religiosity. His life takes an unexpected turn when he accidentally stumbles upon the alluring "Crimson Moon" hot spring, a place steeped in tradition and, as it turns out, inhabited by a temple run by an all-female staff. Drawn into their eccentric world, Akari finds himself entangled in their unique lifestyle and the challenges they face, all while grappling with his own peculiar phobia.
