Satou Yukinari learns that he has a magical malady called Adamas. This makes it so that every time he ejaculates, a small diamond passes from his penis like a kidney stone. Every time, it is extremely painful and could potentially kill him. When people learn about this, several girls attempt to seduce him, all greedy for the diamonds and not caring about his well-being.

In a review of the first volume, Christopher Farris of Anime News Network commented that the series' focus on fanservice as a vehicle for comedy lets it "successfully deploy the kind of content that would only be a distraction in less dedicated works", adding however that due to the nature of its content, which "[o]ccasionally veers close to straight-up pornography before prioritizing for entertaining comedy again", the series "isn't going to be for everybody".[27]
