Synopsis of Taishou Otome Otogibanashi

Tamahiko Shima is the youngest son of the powerful and wealthy Shima family. Blessed with great fortune from childhood, he unwittingly grew up more than the affection of his often distant family. After losing his mother and paralyzing his dominant arm in an accident, Tamahiko fell into deep despair and is rejected by his own father for his disability.

Condemned to live isolated in the countryside where his family’s name would not shame, he resigned himself to dying alone, until one day, a young woman named Yuzuki Tachibana appeared on his doorstep, proclaiming that Tamahiko’s father had sent her to be his girlfriend. . While caring for Tamahiko, Yuzuki brings a sense of spring into Tamahiko’s sad life, allowing her to gradually heal from the deep emotional scars of her youth. Their lives slowly intertwine as Tamahiko and Yuzuki taste the fruits of their first love.
