About

Overlooking the sea, atop a hill, stands Aoba Dai-ichi High School in Minatocho.

Kaoru Tachibana, a second-year student, experienced a deeply upsetting event one night involving her former middle school teacher, Mirei Shimotsuki. Shiori Minagi, a hardworking and exemplary classmate, happened to witness it.

Overwhelmed with sadness, Kaoru finally tells Shiori about the difficult experiences she had with Mirei. Shiori, who seems mysterious, then asks a question that makes Kaoru think.

Uncertain but willing to try, Kaoru contemplates this idea as a means to move forward.

Shiori unexpectedly asks Kaoru for a strange favor: to help her forget about her older brother. She wants Kaoru to guide her through her memories, because while she always tried to live up to her brother’s high standards, she’s realized she’s lost touch with what she truly wants.

Kaoru and Shiori are both excited about a trip down memory lane, hoping to move on from past crushes – Kaoru from her teacher, and Shiori from trying to live up to her brother. But as they grow closer, their connection is noticed by Riku, a classmate who has a secret crush on Shiori. Their story begins with a blend of funny moments and sweet romance.
