Plot

[edit]

Arata Shiunji is a young man who lives with his five sisters and a younger brother. Due to him never having a girlfriend, it appears he will still remain single for the foreseeable future. One day, however, his father reveals a shocking secret to the family: he and his siblings are not blood relatives.
