Given summary

This chord vibrated the dusty air and the eardrums of both. That’s where our music comes from. Mafuyu’s voice penetrates deep to stay there. It’s a dangerous weapon, it’s crazy. Both the guitar that he loved so much and the basketball that amused him so much have already lost their charm in the monotonous life of Uenoyama. Until one day he meets Mafuyu. A shy boy with an old guitar in his arms. Uenoyama felt drowned by the tireless Mafuyu, who had been tied to him since tuning the strings of his guitar. But she heard him sing … and his voice penetrated deep into her being.
