Entering his first year of high school, Daisuke Goryo seeks an ordinary, low-stress club where he can spend his afternoons in peace. Instead, he wanders into the clubroom of the Mystery Research Club, a non-sanctioned extracurricular group facing immediate dissolution due to a lack of male members and official club activities. Before Daisuke can turn back, he is roped into registering by three distinct club members: Kotone Minagawa, Chiaki Asahina, and Suzu Oohira.

Rather than researching authentic paranormal phenomena or uncovering school urban legends, the club operates as a testing ground for each girl's obsessive personal craft. Kotone aims to master real hypnosis and occult curses, Chiaki trains constantly to become a world-renowned illusionist despite recurring stage slip-ups, and Suzu brews volatile chemical mixtures under the guise of scientific inquiry. Daisuke instantly becomes their permanent experimental subject, enduring failed hypnotic trances, malfunctioned stage props, and bizarre potions that alter physical attributes or daily routines.

As Daisuke attempts to survive each school day, the club's sphere of chaos expands to include disciplinary committee members, gyaru classmates, and neighboring clubs. The narrative blends rapid-fire episodic comedy, light harem romance tensions, and escalating situational misunderstandings across 379 published chapters.

What to Expect

The series maintains a fast-paced episodic gag format where individual chapters center on a single experiment, club challenge, or seasonal school event. Tactical comedy relies on punchy dialogue timing, slapstick physical reactions, and escalating ecchi complications that invert common harem tropes. Rather than relying on combat or world-ending stakes, dramatic tension derives from Daisuke attempting to avoid severe embarrassment or physical mishaps caused by the girls' flawed experiments.

Who Will Enjoy This
