Kanade Ichinose is a third-year college student majoring in violin, but he has shut himself off from everyone and everything beyond music. Though his professors and classmates once had high hopes for him, he avoids competitions and sees little point in them. As he considers his future, he drifts into his mother’s music tutoring business, aware that he is pessimistic and dull but unsure how to change. One day, Kanade sees a girl standing barefoot in the snow outside an apartment. Thinking that he could change for her, he takes his first steps into the world of overclocking.
