Orenchi no Furo Jijo

High school student Tatsumi lives alone. One day he spots a person while walking by a river. He approaches the figure and discovers a beautiful man collapsed on the ground.

Wakasa begins living in Tatsumi's bathtub. Just having a merman live in his home is difficult enough, but another major problem arises: the living expenses including water for Wakasa!

One weekend morning as Tatsumi heads to the bathroom with breakfast, he hears lively voices coming from inside.The puzzled Tatsumi opens the bathroom door and discovers a mysterious octopus? No, it's Wakasa's friend Takasu.

Tatsumi informs Wakasa and Takasu of a rumor about a ghost appearing in a nearby park. Behind Tatsumi, a mysterious white object appears... The white shadow tells a surprised Tatsumi, "Nice to meet you. My name is Mikuni."

A witch, a vampire, and a mummy... From the darkness, Wakasa, Takasu, and Mikuni appear.When Tatsumi sees Wakasa dressed as a witch, he wonders why. When Mikuni declares, "Trick or Treat," he realizes it's Halloween, but he tells the trio he has no candy. The watchful trio pounces on Tatsumi with a tickle attack! What will happen to Tatsumi? Will Wakasa and his friends acquire any candy?

Wakasa reads his magazines as usual. He had become obsessed with the female fantasy of taking a bubble bath. When Tatsumi enters the bathroom, drags Wakasa out of the tub. Wakasa doesn't understand.

The doorbell rings. A panicked Tatsumi says, "She's here! I'm counting on you," and Wakasa responds by giving him a thumbs up and saying, "Leave it to me!"

One day at dinner after Wakasa is finished eating, Tatsumi finds leftover bell peppers and carrots on his plate. When Tatsumi asks why he doesn't eat vegetables, Wakasa responds being a carnivore is the current trend.

Wakasa is shocked when Tatsumi leans over the tub and announces it stinks. Tatsumi cleans the tub responsible for the odor and transfers Wakasa to a children's pool. Saying, "Brother, tell me if you're using the pool," Kasumi mistakes Wakasa for Tatsumi and hugs him.

Some schoolboys are making a commotion in front of Tatsumi's apartment. They leave immediately when Tatsumi calls out to them. Looking down, Tatsumi discovers a conch rolling near his feet.

When Wakasa asks if something good happened, Tatsumi shyly admits his manager gave him a raise and allows Wakasa to splurge a little. Wakasa grins at Tatsumi's offer to splurge, and Tatsumi buys Wakasa a massive amount of milk. While Wakasa enjoys his milk bath, Mikuni, Maki, and Takasu arrive...

"When I'm home alone, sometimes I hear noises when there's no one else around..." Wakasa reads scary magazines alone in the bathroom. Startled by a clattering sound, Wakasa turns around and tells Tatsumi not to frighten him, but there's no one there... Wakasa grows uneasy. He worries Tatsumi, who still hasn't returned, has run away from home, gotten into an accident, or worse. Can Wakasa hand...

"Am I a mooch?!" After watching an interview on TV, Wakasa realizes he may be a mooch. Wakasa asks Tatsumi to help him find work. He tries to write a resume, but with nothing to list but "20 years of experience as a merman," he abandons the idea. Tatsumi suggests entering prize contests. Wakasa enthusiastically begins writing, but...\r\nCan Wakasa clear his doubts about being a mooch?!
