Description
A VERY UNRELAXING VACATION! Life in Japan is hectic as always for Sasaki, even when he finally scores some time off work. With their apartment complex in ruins, he and his neighbour must now find new places to live.
And as if that isn't stressful enough, a riot breaks out right next to Miss Hoshizaki’s condo, so of course Sasaki and Futarishizuka come to the rescue in disguise?!
Meanwhile, in the otherworld, the succession dispute takes a drastic turn when Prince Lewis launches an offensive against the Ohgen Empire, forcing Sasaki and Peeps to go undercover to save Herz. When exactly are they supposed to relax again?
