Plot

The first morning of the new semester is rainy, with cherry blossoms falling onto the puddles. The students of Yaegasumi High School enter the school gate with various colors of umbrellas. In front of the shoe locker, Yua starts chatting with her friend, Ren Aikawa, whose tights got wet from the rain. Homi, who was drenched, joined them pretending she was jumping. The new semester begins with the girls doing seemingly normal things, while heavily pandering to foot fetishists.[1]
