This short story explores Pygmalionism (a rather uncommon fetish for statues, or as in this case, lifelike mannequins or dolls). Renounced clinical psychologist Keiichi Toma, is 30yo and a virgin who hides a secret fetish; his love for his sex doll. When he gets a spot as a visiting lecturer at college, Toma casts his eyes upon “the mannequin prince,” in his class and is instantly captivated by the expressionless beauty. Their story is too short to do it real justice. Indeed, Toma comes across as a bit of a weird pervert and not in a sexy way lol. He uses his professional skills to pursue Tamaki, which is a bit unfair and he sees Tamaki as a live doll. Thankfully Tamaki has more fire than expected.
