Deep in the mountains lies a rural town that attracts many tourists due to its beautiful lakes and hills, connected to the city by a single bullet train line.
And in that rural town lives a guy named Jouichi. He’s watching the play of his friend of several years, Emi.
Though it may be fiction to the audience, from the perspective of the characters in the play, it is reality. Emi enjoys the performance as an actress, Jouichi as a spectator.
It’s summer, the season of festivals.
With the town full of festivity, Jouichi is working part-time to help with construction, which leads to him making some new acquaintances.
The quiet girl, Kana.
The energetic girl, Hinami.
The gentle girl, Yukari.
Among all these meetings, a curious incident occurs.
Emi is teaching the technologically inept Jouichi how to use the chat application, NEEL.
But as she’s doing so, his new phone vibrates and a message notification appears.
“You have received a friend request.”
Jouichi has a puzzled expression on his face.
The sender... was his friend who he thought had committed suicide.
