An old man who once spent his youth playing gal games.

One morning, he awoke to find himself as Yuuki Naruse, the protagonist of his favorite old gal game, "Under a Cloudless Blue Sky"—commonly known as "KumoSora."

KumoSora is a typical visual novel-style tear-jerking game. Having played KumoSora extensively in the past, the old man perfectly knows how to clear all heroine routes.

The old man, poised and ready, would embark on capturing the heroines—or so you'd think! No way!

"Why, you ask? Because the process leading up to a happy ending is absolutely hellish!"

That's right. As it turns out, KumoSora was a Japanese folklore horror-style gal game, set in a rural town and absolutely packed with depressing elements! What's more, the writer was a notorious figure famous for their 18+ violation-themed works! No matter which route is chosen, the protagonist must endure grotesque, painful, gloomy, and utterly brutal trials!

"I will absolutely not clear any heroine routes! I'll smash every depressing flag before it's raised!"

Leveraging his knowledge from his former job at a securities company, the old man earns vast sums of money with the cheat of knowing the future, gaining power backed by his financial strength.

"The shrine that's the headquarters of all depressing events? Buy it out and shut it down! Local yakuza trying to do perverted things to the heroines? I'll hire stronger mercenaries and crush them!"

This is a story about an old man who reincarnated into the world of a tear-jerking game, refuses to capture heroines, and forcibly derails depressing plotlines using money and power. However, the saved heroines aren't about to stay silent...

"Tee hee. Yuu-kun. Good morning."

(Hey! Main heroine, stay away! I absolutely refuse your '3000 Years of Solitude' route!)
