Ishibuki Toru, a super-motivated guy, is enjoying the rest of his college life after finishing his job hunting...but his lack of morals has earned him the enmity of Mangi Rihito, a hard-nosed junior student with a quirk or two, and it turns out that he is also his neighbor. One day, a “play” girl comes to his house, and he unwillingly takes emergency refuge in Rihito's room. However, there...Toru finds an 18 only doujinshi of “tentacles” that Rihito has been wanking over for years...?

Nagisa, an Omega who was betrayed by his ex-boyfriend, has lived his life devoted to his beloved son, Haru. Although he had firmly decided that he no longer needed love or a "destined partner," he ends up meeting his "Destined Alpha", Takamine, at the place he moves to. The fluttering in his heart is short-lived, as Nagisa is left infuriated by Takamine's incredibly tactless proposal. However, Takamine has no intention of giving up on Nagisa and, in his own clumsy way, begins to build a relationship with both Nagisa and his son. As they spend their days together—going to summer festivals as a group of three and helping with bicycle training—the romantic feelings Nagisa thought he had long since thrown away begin to bud once more...

The "Xenogears Comic Anthology" is a collection of short stories that take place throughout the present and future of the Xenogears timeline. Most are comical, but there are a few serious character pieces.

A loose adaptation of Sheridan Le Fanu's Gothic story *Carmilla*. During summer vacation, Chizuko Kitagawa stayed in the countryside with her big brother, their parents, and their old family maid. One night Chizuko and her brother saved a foreign girl named Carmilla from a car accident. Somehow, Carmilla was the spitting image of a woman who appeared in the brother's dreams ten years ago. While the whole family wanted Carmilla to stay with them until she recovered from her accident, the old maid adamantly insisted that Carmilla must immediately leave, or else misfortune will strike! *Note: Re-released as "Yuu Reikan no Hanayome no Chi" (ゆうれい館の花嫁の血) by Hibarishobo in 1986.*

Keiko Ono and Sakurako Yuri become exclusive and eternal friends though a bloodpact.
