Plot

Akira Saitou was a close friend with tomboyish Subaru Kawana when they were kids, but Subaru was forced to study in a prestigious private high school because of her family's rich status. But via a special scholarship plan, Akira followed his childhood friend and managed to enter the same high school as Subaru. Even though he reunites with Subaru, she has grown into a talented and beautiful woman and has become distant to him. Subaru keeps a cold attitude towards Akira but he wants to somehow shorten the distance between them. Akira troubled with Subaru's cold attitude, remembers a mistakenly overheard conversation of some girls in which they're talking about a God named "Ura no Kamisama" who fulfill your wish if you cast a spell and say a wish, in exchange of something. He muttered the spell and wishes that his room will connect to Subaru's and his wish magically comes true. He later found that Subaru actually wished the same thing as him, and "Self-control" of a person is the price at which the wish comes true, but Subaru wished earlier than him so only she loses her self-control for one hour per day. Akira and Subaru are forced to live together due to their room being connected. In spite of that, Subaru does not show any signs like she is compromising. Subaru sees him with cold eyes like watching an insect. However, when Subaru's self restraint was taken her usual cold attitude starting to looks like a lie to Akira.
