Ritsuka Uenoyama is bored with it all—with school, with his basketball club, and even with his one true passion: playing guitar. That is, until the day he finds his favorite hidden napping spot occupied by a strange boy cradling a broken-stringed guitar. At first, Uenoyama is nonplussed by Mafuyu Satō and his slightly odd behavior, but when, on a whim, he asks Mafuyu to sing, the power of that song pierces him to the core.

Ritsuka Uenoyama finds his monotonous school life disrupted when a quiet stranger claims his favorite napping spot with a broken guitar. This gentle drama tracks how two mismatched boys rediscover their passion for music through shared melodies.
