Story Overview
Kamiya Naoki is a basketball player from a professional basketball team, JC Arcs. However, due to his relatively smaller size and his tendency to crack under pressure, he has been unable to show his true skills on the court since he went professional. Shirakawa Riko is a cheerful, strong-spirited music-college graduate aiming to become a professional violinist but also struggling to find a placement in the professional music world. Riko and Naoki's paths cross when Riko finds a cellphone which Naoki accidentally left on the bus but it takes some time before these complete strangers find themselves meeting again, striking up an unusual friendship.
