Premise


One day, high school student Koushi Shirota catches the student council president and school madonna, Takane Takamine, changing her clothes. Later, when he notices that she received her test result of a 98%, she removes her panties, and he sees her receiving the exam result again, but this time with a perfect score. She soon confronts him and tells him that she has the ability to rewind time by taking off her underwear which then disappears. However, because he saw her naked, he is able to go back in time with her. She then forces him to be her "closet", that is, to replace her panties with fresh ones wherever she goes and uses the power, and to keep it all a secret from others.
