The Emperor's new Empress is hardly older than his son Hikaru, making her the object of his affection and desire. Although he cannot have her, his heart wanders as he seeks to replace her in his bed. One day, he thinks he has found the perfect replacement and commits a heinous act. Centuries later, Hikaru is reincarnated as the ultimate womanizer, but his past sins catch up with him as he quivers at the touch of any woman. This manga draws inspiration from "The Tale of Genji" ("Genji Monogatari").
