There are plenty of bands in Japan. But what if, and I mean what if, I could lead Kessoku Band out of Shimokitazawa, hold our own concert, perform at Rock in Japan Fes, play the Budokan, then the New National Stadium and the Domes, dominate Kohaku, win the Gold Disc Award, and perform at NHK Hall in Shibuya?
You mediocre nobodies, what would you do then?
Starting a band isn't a dead end! I, Hitori Gotoh, will break that rule, for real!
--- From Hitori Gotoh's delirious ramblings
This is an IF story, completely different from the original. It isn't a happy one: reality has crushed the protagonists to pieces.
How will four girls from different backgrounds and circumstances come together to form a band? When youth is no longer all beautiful hopes, but only conflict and strife, how will their intersecting lives turn out differently?
After suddenly losing her hearing, Hitori Gotoh chose to give up music and end her life---
That should have been the end. But when she woke, the familiar summer was still before her, and Kessoku Band had formed once again.
Returning to that day, Hitori Gotoh thought about many things, but couldn't understand one thing: why had the burning passion in her heart never gone out?
