Plot

Astarotte Ygvar is a succubus and must have a harem, but she hates males. The human male Naoya Tōhara is introduced to her as a member of her harem.

Characters

Astarotte Ygvar (アスタロッテ)

She is a succubus and the heroine of the series. When she turns ten years old, she is told that she will need to begin building a harem because when she fully matures her body will require a regular supply of semen to keep from wasting away, much as a vampire requires blood. Unfortunately, her mother's extreme excesses have lead "Lotte" to develop a fierce hatred and disgust toward all men. She demands that the first member of her harem be a human from the human world, knowing that the Yggdrasill tree that connects them to the human world has been dormant for years and hoping that this demand would allow her to avoid the task entirely.

Naoya Tōhara (塔原 直哉, Tōhara Naoya)

He the hero of the series. When the Yggdrasill treee activates and allows one of Lotte's servants to enter the human world, he is taken back to become the first member of Lotte's harem, much to Lotte's chagrin. He encountered Lotte's mother roughly eleven years ago when he was 12, and then again a few years later when she brought him Asuha, his daughter from said encounter.

Asuha Tōhara (塔原 明日葉, Tōhara Asuha)

She is the daughter of Naoya and Mercelida. She is ten years old, like Lotte.

Mercelída Ygvar

She is the mother of Astarotte and Asuha. Extremely promiscuous, even for a succubus, she once slept with a man from her harem while Lotte, then 5, was in bed with her; the shock of this experience is identified as the origin of Astarotte's hatred toward men.
