Given synopsis
This chord made the dusty air vibrate and their eardrums vibrate. Here comes … our music. Mafuyu’s voice penetrates deeply to stay there. It’s a dangerous weapon, it’s crazy. Both the guitar, which he loved so much, and the basketball, which he enjoyed so much, have already lost their appeal in Uenoyama’s monotonous life. Until one day he meets Mafuyu. A shy boy with an old guitar in his arms. Uenoyama felt drowned out by the tireless Mafuyu who had grown fond of him since tuning the strings of his guitar. But she heard him sing … and his voice penetrated her deeply.
