Alien invaders called Kiseichuu are plotting to gradually eradicate humanity by draining them of their H-energy, or libido, and undermining human reproduction. While this issue looms over society, Retto Enjo discovers that his childhood friend, Kirara Hoshino, has closed herself off from the world after a traumatic experience, and is worried about her. He speaks to her for the first time in many years, but their rocky relationship is unchanged. Retto is discouraged by this but encounters a Kiseichuu on the way home from school.

Earth faces an unprecedented threat from an invasion by the mysterious Kiseichuu. The Kiseichuu feed on human sexual energy, also known as “H-energy,” and weaken the human population.

3. Butterfly Effect
Kirara joins the team as Hxe Yellow but is unable to unleash her full potential in critical moments and allows the Kiseichuu to escape. The reason that Kirara keeps on failing is because of insufficient H-energy.

Apparently, there is a reason why Momoka is getting so worked up about Kirara’s predicament…

Maihime Shirayuki has a laid-back personality and can’t play sports to save her life.

A Kiseichuu appears at the all-girls high school that Maihime goes to, but how will she fight this enemy and its menacing tentacles?

Chacha wants to stop her other comrades from destroying humanity and plans an escape with Kirara. Retto and others finally arrive at the nest and charge head-on, but…
6. New Roommate (?)
Chacha joins HXEROS as a new member and starts living with the team in the same dormitory. Chacha enters Retto’s consciousness to find the source of his H-energy. While still merged with Retto’s consciousness, she visits the rooms of Maihime, Momoka, and Sora and stimulates their H-energy. She ends up taking a bath with Kirara, which makes Retto antsy. Chacha’s powers are too much for Kirara, who faints from the heat. Chacha realizes that Retto is in love with Kirara and takes control over his body while whispering to him that now is his chance.

Recently in Saitama, public concern has been mounting over large numbers of people that have been oversleeping in the morning, resulting in them being late for school or work.

Will Retto be able to awaken from a fantasy-filled dream state and defeat Genmuchuu?

The Saitama and Tokyo branches visit Akihabara so the members can get to know each other better. Shiko is desperate to get close to Retto, so she suggests that the members divide up into two groups to explore the area.

Yona’s group enjoys a wholesome sightseeing tour of Akihabara, while Moena’s group heads to…
