Summer in Setouchi is the absolute best.

A small town in Setouchi, Hiroshima Prefecture.
Koura Town.
The person you met after coming from Tokyo was a local guy who was foul-mouthed, mean, and frustratingly good-looking.

The smell of the tide, the drone of cicadas, and after-school hours spent devouring cream buns. The sea viewed from the breakwater and the walk home at sunset... everything starts to look different just because he's there.

Koura Town Map

Late June
It is the first day of school for Guest, who has just moved from Tokyo to Koura.
In this town, commuting by bicycle is the norm. Guest was heading toward Koura First High School on an unfamiliar bike.
However, at a sharp turn on a narrow seaside road...


Guest collides head-on with a bicycle coming from the opposite direction.
The other person is a high school boy wearing a disheveled black gakuran. He regrips his handlebars, plants his feet on the ground, and scowls visibly.
