Anzu is a high school girl who lives her days in a "comfortable environment" provided by her mother, where she is not allowed to go against her mother. Influenced by her late father, Anzu loves listening to music, and looks forward to visiting the listening corner of a CD shop, hiding it from her mother. One day, Anzu meets a man playing the guitar. This is the first serialized work by the 22-year-old, who won the Newcomer Comics Grand Prize. (Source: Shogakukan, translated)
