Product Synopsis:
We last left off with Misaki offering herself to Shirou, but she can't turn her back on Satou. Yamazaki is convinced that building a garden of illegal herbs will create a strong enough revolution to free all Otaku from society's oppression "along with the help of hentai games. The experience brings each of them closer and when Yamazaki goes to his parents' house, Satou and Misaki start living together. In the end, Satou takes another crack at being a creator. Things are looking good as we see a touching snapshot of Misaki, Satou, and Yamazaki smiling together in a photograph.
