Shikoyaka naru Toki mo Hameru Toki mo – Episode 1 (ES)

In "Ōeburo Onsen Monogatari" (The Great Bath Hot Spring Tale), a lone man braves extreme cold, darkness, and isolation to uncover the legendary hidden hot spring known as Rankō no Yu. Exhausted and seeking relief, he soaks in the steaming waters—only for two stunning women to join him without hesitation or shame. Settling boldly on either side, they casually strike up conversation, but a light touch quickly arouses him beyond control. The pair playfully teases and toys with his growing erection, drawing him into waves of intense, hallucinatory pleasure amid the misty vapors, as if the steam itself conjures erotic visions that penetrate to his very core.

Meanwhile, in "Klippechi Koi Uta" (Cliff-Edge Love Song), 32-year-old department manager Kariya Orica has devoted her life to work, with no romance or dating experience. As colleagues and subordinates marry one after another, she suddenly realizes she's on the brink of being "left behind." Drinking alone in despair, her subordinate Jodō appears to comfort her. A drunken slip of the tongue sparks an unexpected shift, deepening their bond in surprising and intimate ways that blur professional lines and awaken long-suppressed desires.
