An extraordinary story that revolves around an ordinary man.

Vincent, the protagonist, is a man living in the city. He and his girlfriend Katherine have been dating for five years, but he is accustomed to the carefree bachelor life and has no interest in marriage.

One day, at the bar Vincent frequents, he meets a beautiful woman and has an unexpected affair. While Vincent takes every precaution as not to let the fact that he cheated leak out, he also starts to receive the affection of Rin, a pianist who lost her memory.

In the meantime, strange rumors have begun circulating the city—“Cheating men will fall into a nightmare. If someone dies in their dreams, it will bring about death even in the real world.”

Will Vincent be able to escape his nightmare? And who will Vincent choose after repeatedly fighting through hell…!?

Despite having a girlfriend, Vincent unexpectedly has an affair. Of course, love difficulties await.

Vincent is worn out from nightmare after nightmare. Will the reason for his curse and the person behind it be revealed?

Catherine (Voiced by Miyuki Sawashiro, Others)

“Marriage is just a tradition, right? Seriously, who wants to be tied down?”

A beautiful girl Vincent meets at a bar he frequents. In contrast with her innocent young girl-like face, her body possesses an unbalanced voluptuousness. She assertively pursues Vincent and spends the night with him. Her name is coincidentally the same name as Katherine, Vincent’s girlfriend.

A self-proclaimed “Cooking Expert.” She brings the homely appeal with her homemade cupcakes.

Vincent is at the mercy of Catherine’s daring actions.
