Hikigaya Hachiman, who has been with the trumpet since elementary school, is a loner who is labeled as "eccentric". When family changes forced him to transfer to Kyoto, he thought he would just continue his gloomy high school life in a different place. However, fate led him to Kitauji High School, which is famous for being an "underdog" in wind music.
There is a wind club that has failed to qualify for the Kansai preliminaries for five consecutive years, a group of members with varying skills but unexpected enthusiasm, and the newly transferred music teacher Taki - this new consultant loudly announced at the first club meeting: "Our goal is the gold medal in the national competition."
Facing this team whose basic ensemble was full of flaws, Hikigaya tightened his grip on the trumpet with the sheen of old metal in his hand. He originally thought he had seen through the hypocrisy of group activities, but in Teacher Taki's melody, he heard musical possibilities that he had never experienced before. When the cherry blossoms in Kyoto begin to fall, this underdog, despised by everyone, is quietly playing the first note leading to the national stage - and Hikigaya Hachiman's life movement will also usher in unexpected changes here.
