📖 SYNOPSIS

Marion, a schoolboy, lives by a strict philosophy of rationalism, rejecting any form of emotional expression. He believes himself above such displays, particularly affection. However, his carefully constructed facade crumbles when he becomes involved in a romantic relationship with an older courtesan. This affair exposes his emotional immaturity, revealing that his rationalism is merely a shield. As he learns to love and experiences the courtesan's care, Marion begins to change. He starts to grow and develop emotionally. Unfortunately, Marion has yet to understand the true price he will pay for this relationship, hinting at a future challenge or hardship. The anime explores themes of emotional growth, the complexities of love, and the consequences of suppressing one's feelings.
