Struggling to fit in, she finds herself seated next to Yuushin Hirose, a tall and outgoing boy whose cheerful personality is the complete opposite of her own. Their 50-centimeter height difference and contrasting traits quickly make them the talk of the class, but Yuushin's kindness begins to draw Hiyori out of her shell. As she navigates the challenges of friendship, first love, and finding her place, Hiyori discovers the courage to embrace change.

Urara Sano, once the ace of her middle school track-and-field team, decides to start fresh in high school by trying something new.

Alongside her friends, Urara navigates the highs and lows of youth, finding inspiration in the melodies they create together and learning what it truly means to play from the heart.
