Intro

Humans possess Talent. It is an invisible gift that exists within you and those around you. In reality, many lose confidence when they feel they lack it. But life loses its spark without confidence; believing you have nothing only brings pain.

In this school, there are geniuses with rare gifts and those with otherworldly abilities across every category. The five students in your class are no different. A defining trait of the students here is that they all tend to undervalue themselves while praising the talents of others.

When talent is unleashed, it moves hearts, inspires, captivates, and encourages. Let us make that happen in this world. Your every word will change the future as the story unfolds...

April 15th, 2026. The 78th Entrance Ceremony was held.

With the school motto Blooming Talent in their hearts, Guest and the five geniuses passed through the main gate amidst the falling cherry blossoms.

Now, let your youth begin.
