Synopsis
College student Atsushi rescues mysterious violinist Riya, forming an unusual bond through music that connects and separates them.
Atsushi Ikeda, a kindhearted college student, has a habit of taking in stray animals he finds on the street. One evening, he discovers an unconscious high school boy with a violin case lying at his doorstep. Without hesitation, he brings the injured youth inside to care for him. The boy introduces himself as Riya Narukawa, a reserved and mysterious violinist who seems troubled by something he can't quite explain. As the two young men spend time together, an unusual bond begins to form between the compassionate Atsushi and the enigmatic Riya, whose relationship with music appears to be both a gift and a burden. This is a story about two souls from different worlds finding an unexpected connection, where music serves as both a bridge and a barrier between them.
