HINATA.1 - Welcome to Hinata House!.....Pg. 007

The story begins with an flashback telling the story about a young boy and a girl who talked about Tokyo University and promised to go there together when they grew up. But in the end the little girl had to leave the boy alone. Fast forwarding 15 years latter and we meet the boy, Keitaro, now with 19 years old.

Keitaro failed the entrance to the University twice in a row and eventually was kicked out of his parents house. Having nowhere else to go he decided to visit his grandma's inn, Hinata Inn, and ask her if he could stay with her.

When Keitaro reached is destination he found Hinata Inn completely empty. After staying a little bit in his grandma house and reviewing his life so far (concluding that he didn't had done anything right in his 19 years of life) he decides to stay a little bit in the Hot Springs.

Just when he was enjoying his bath, a naked girl enters the pool without noticing about the other presence with her.
