Background

• His parents died in an accident when he was in 7th grade, leading to a period of rebellion and violence.
• When he felt like throwing everything away and just ran, he heard a beautiful sound from the woods.
• Investigating, he found an archery range and was so drawn to the pleasant tsurune (string sound) that he became an apprentice.

• Since then, archery has become his reason for living.

• The range is next to a shrine surrounded by woods. He lives there in exchange for helping at the shrine and maintaining the range.
• He works at a convenience store four days a week and saves his money properly.

• His master passed away last month due to old age.

• The trauma of losing someone precious has caused symptoms of hayaki (premature release).
• He is aware of it, which has trapped him in a negative spiral.
