INTRO
An old castle in Eastern Europe that's been renovated into a hotel...
Traveling all the way from Japan, the protagonist proposes to his girlfriend there, and she accepts.
However, an unexpected phone call causes his girlfriend, now-fiancée, to take an emergency flight back home for work reasons.
Once left on his own, the protagonist has a strange dream. He becomes a woman, invited into an era when the castle still flourished. When he wakes from his dream, he realizes with shock that he's physically transforming into the woman he was in his dream.
And although he struggles to find a way to change back, every time he sleeps, he's taken to the dream world―the castle during the Middle Ages. Every time he wakes from the dreams, his body comes closer to becoming that of an actual woman.
His girlfriend accepted his proposal, but he can't get back to her like this. Will he escape his dreams? Can he transform back into a man? Or will the future take a turn in an unseen direction...?

CHARACTERS
Mia
Voice: Hikaru Isshiki
“You can't be serious, I'm a guy!”

Young and full of promise, the protagonist has been trusted with more important tasks recently at work. He's brimming with consideration for others while also pushing forward with conviction where needed; he's overall willful and confident.

He visits a hotel, renovated from an old castle, in Eastern Europe to give a surprise wedding proposal to his girlfriend, Yuki Suwabe. But a dream he has at the hotel, where he turns into a woman, causes him to gradually transform into one in real life.

The devils who made this way give him the name “Mia” for his female form.

Yuki Suwabe
Voice: Yui Otokura
“He made me fall in love. Of course he's wonderful.”

A clever woman who works as a project manager at a pharmaceutical company.
More of a callous decision-maker at work, others tend to think Yuki is cold and impassive.

The only person she feels comfortable showing her true self to is the protagonist. Too capable for her own good, work has piled up in front of her, and she's had her hands full for the last couple of years.

During her long-awaited paid leave, she travels to Eastern Europe with her boyfriend, and he proposes to her. But at the heights of her joy, her workplace summons her, and she's forced to take flight back home. How can she know trouble has befallen her poor fiancé?

Damythf
Voice: —

“Don't strain yourself with difficult thoughts.”

Wlad Damythf. The second head of house Damythf. A noble from the past―in the dream world―who owns the land where the old castle stands in glory.

Broad-minded and a capable individual as a politician and a soldier, Damythf is notably ambitious. He flourished his land with his talents, but as a result, made enemies of other nobles who wished to find and exploit his weaknesses.

Thus, they put his wife, Chlerna, under suspicion for being a witch.

Chlerna
Voice: Saya Kazuki

“I still chose to be together with my husband.”

Chlerna Gupia Damythf.A noblewoman from the past―in the dream world―and the wife of Damythf.

Their marriage has been fair.

While shocked to see a mirror double of herself with Mia (the protagonist), she eagerly looks after him as though tending to a younger sister.
