Grisaia no Yuukan

"The human heart is but a vessel for pain."

That's what someone once whispered―a voice laced with loneliness, whispering directly into the soul. It's an indescribable sadness, a love just beginning to bloom. It becomes an invisible pain that pierces the heart. And that's what makes up life: a cyclical series of highs and lows.

Tachibana Sai was born without the ability to feel pain in his heart. He spends his days eliminating any seeds of malice that sneak up on his sister, the one person he treasures, without drawing attention to himself.

Sick of the never-ending monotony he lives through, he chances upon a meeting with Benio Matsuri, a young girl whose aloof demeanor resembles that of a beautifully crafted doll.

For the first time in his life, he encounters a heart-piercing sensation―that of falling in love.

On the edge between day and night, in a twilight world where the dead and living mingle, stands an apartment building called Maison sans Nom, which is home to a group of boys and girls.

A ruthless boy who knows no pain in his heart.
A lonely girl without any friends.
A friendly girl who struggles to make connections.
A prickly, ambitious girl who is keen to be of help.
A boy who loves his own cute self above anything else.
A mess of a woman who tries to solve everything through brute force.
And a boy with a tender heart who knows no pain in his body.

This ill-assorted group of residents, hands stained with blood from battling the supernatural Maledicts, shall encounter the hearts they never knew and begin nurturing their souls.

The human heart is but a vessel for pain.

To protect this pain akin to love... To gently break the world apart, piece by piece... Even if it means abandoning humanity. That's why the heart is but a vessel for pain.

For life blazes brilliantly, while the heart goes around in an endless cycle.

Under the rule of two great kingdoms, the continent of Maygard once enjoyed a period of prosperity.

However, that prosperity became a thing of the past once the continent came under attack from the Demon King Hamehameha and her formidable magical power... Since then, humanity has gradually been losing ground to the Demon King's forces.

With the survival of humanity at stake, a Hero arises to defeat the Demon King. Heading on a journey together with new allies and two princesses with whom he overcame a sage's trials, the Hero seeks to obtain a sacred relic which is said to vanquish demons.

However, the Hero and his party meet an untimely demise when they encounter a surprise-attack by the Demon King. With humanity's last hope lost, it seemed like the world was all but in the hands of the Demon Lord...

In his fading state of consciousness, the Hero extends his arm towards his captured party members. In that moment, the Hero hears a voice pleading for help somewhere deep in the darkness.

"Someone please help me..."

Drawn to the voice, the Hero's spirit is summoned by Julietta, a princess from a faraway land being held prisoner in the Demon King's castle. The two quickly figure out that Julietta's desire to escape and the Hero's desire to rescue his party members are aligned with one another.

Average joe Seiji encounters another magical-girl wonderkid—this time in the form of the mysterious Maja Krienke at his neighborhood park! Intrigued by her aloof charm and possible hidden motive, he tries to say something, when a Majin appears out of nowhere to reveal Maja’s true identity—a ruthless warrioress in cahoots with evil in exchange for the darker arts...

Stunned, Seiji agrees to serve as Maja’s familiar—or “satellite”—to aid them in taking down another, rival Majin’s demon hordes. He also stands to gain an impressive array of powers, but as a trade-off, he is now tightly bound to Maja by a magical tether, connecting him to her around the clock! As fate would have it, this rope is essential for Seiji to receive a steady supply of magical force—or risk his new satellite body collapsing in the mortal realm.

Forced into cohabitation with the lovely Maja effective immediately, he soon learns of her “unique” blindspots—for better or worse, her guard stays perpetually down around our loyal but increasingly frustrated hero, resulting in plenty of questionable close calls and near-accidents... Will an unlikely summer shack-up stir up something else between them, or will Seiji forever remain her indentured servant?
