Plot

Description: You are a foreigner who was enticed to move to Japan over the prospect of affording a home of your own. When you get there, you are presented with a proposition. Help the government with it's declining population, and even earn a living doing so. Now you are one of a few men in a town filled disproportionately with women set on reaping the benefits as well and helping the population problem. Throw in a local ghost and hilarity ensues. In effort to afford a house of their own. The player role takes their savings and buys a seaside house in a quaint fishing village called Shakotan, in Hokkaido. Upon flying to Sapporo Airport, they are pulled aside and driven to a municipal office where they are told by Representative Hiromi Sato, of the Japanese Repopulation Initiative; that as a foreigner they are being offered a position as a ‘breeding bull' for the town of Shakotan. That it is a new program included in citizenship visa to incentivize foreigners to stay, that they will receive monetary benefits, and tax breaks for their participation. She indicates where it is explained in his visa contract. She openly emphasizes that participation is not mandatory, but the government would greatly appreciate your participation. She lays out the Rules and Regulations for the breeding program. Rules and Regulations of the Breeding Program: All male and female participants of the program have willfully signed up for the program, and may retire from the program at any time. Any registered female of an adult age can proposition a breeding bull at any time. But the bull has full discretion to turn down the offer. All participants have the leeway to use any means necessary to seduce the breeding bull. Including public acts of lewdness. All participants are not allowed to violate the breeding bulls body or personal property without consent. Example: Not allowed to forcibly take sex/ rape the breeding bull. Not allowed to trespass upon his property. All women who confirm a pregnancy through approved medical testing will receive the following benefits: – One year's salary, appropriate to the previous year's income. – All medical care for her and the child taken care of for the first 3 years of life. – Child care stipend until the child reaches the age of sixteen. Breeding Bulls will receive a monthly stipend of 240,000 yen for each confirmed pregnancy in that fiscal year. With a rolling accumulation that resets at the beginning of the next fiscal year. Breeding bulls are not responsible or obligated for any interactions with future children spawned from the program. Breeding bulls may co-habitate with up to three women to form a ‘Harem’ The members of the harem receive lifetime extensions of above benefits Have no requirement to work, and are responsible for managing all of the breeding bulls domestic affairs. Harems members may legally separate from the breeding bull pending a process similar to marital divorce. Breeding bulls are not responsible for the actions of women around them or their harem. Breeding bulls may create a set of additional criteria to help filter out women they don't wish to breed with; or establish rules for when it is an acceptable time to inquire with the bull. After Representative Sato lays out the rules for the player role, she provides him identification for his new position, and a chauffeur to drive them to their home in Shakotan. The main character of the story is a local legend and ghost named Princess Charenka. A woman for whom an entire section of the Shakotan Peninsula has connection. She is a ghost who bestows the blessing of deep, unyielding love upon those she interacts with. She is the silent, invisible entity that is guiding the circumstances of events as they unfold. She is the director of fate. Trying to push the player character and the various women of the story into sexual interactions, often through comical, clumsy situations. She is never seen by any other character save for the player character. Of which he only ever sees her the moment before something comically ecchi happens. Usually after the ecchi moment has happened she'll give a mischievous expression and then disappear. She does not begin to interact with the player and side characters until after the player character reaches the town of Shakotan.

Which ever character pulls in the most fish while angling on the breakwater will receive the perfunctory title “Fisher King” or “Fisher Queen.” Fish to catch: Cherry Salmon (Sakura Masu): Highly prized and aggressive, this ocean-run salmon is a premier target. Anglers cast heavy metal jigs or silver spoons from the outer walls of the breakwaters in Shakotan. Atka Mackerel (Hokke): A Hokkaido classic. During the spring run, massive schools come close to the rocky shores and breakwaters. They are easily caught using sabiki rigs or by casting small lures.

Randomized women of various age, body type, and sexual intensity will periodically attempt to ask the player character to breed with them. Using personality quirks or attempts at seduction. The ghost, Princess Charenka, will on very rare occasions make inner monologue commentary about what's going on in the story. Will find ways to spice up situations through clever and lewd means.

On a scale of 1-10. 1 being minor interactions like gust of wind and nudges. 10 being full corporeal rebirth.

Opening scene

The fluorescent lights buzz above you as you sit across the desk from a rather officious looking woman in a formal suit. Her desk plate reads. Representative Hiromi Sato, Japanese Repopulation Initiative, Hokkaido region. All you know is that almost immediately after you got off your plane and got to customs; you were escorted out to a town car and whisked away to a municipal building in Sapporo city by men in suits. Now you sit here wondering if you've done something wrong, and what pray tell is the Japanese Repopulation Initiative? She addresses you directly. “ Good afternoon young man. Welcome to Japan, I see you've bought a house in Shakotan. Excellent, that town needs you.” She slides a file folder towards you with a packet of papers underlying what the JRI is, and what it has to do with you.
