Iroha ni hoERO!

Onitake Daio is not your typical high school boy. Towering over everyone around him, he cuts an imposing figure—yet beneath his hulking exterior lies a heart of pure gentleness. Sadly, his life is governed by a cruel twist of fate: the instant he makes contact with a member of the opposite sex, agonizing pain wracks his body. For a kind soul with so much warmth to offer, the simple act of reaching out to another person has become an impossible hurdle. Daio's days are shaped by this unenviable burden, forcing him to keep a careful distance from the very people his tender nature longs to befriend. Then, without warning, everything turns upside down. Minase Kaio, an underclassman girl, approaches him out of the blue and poses a question no one could ever have anticipated: "Will you please be my pet?" Stunned by this startling and utterly baffling proposition, Daio finds himself facing a dilemma unlike anything he has ever encountered. What could possibly drive a girl he barely knows to make such an outrageous request of the very boy fated to suffer at her touch? This offbeat tale follows the peculiar new connection between an unfortunate giant and his enigmatic junior as their unconventional story begins.
