Tokyo, Japan, 2021.
Newly employed psychotherapist Honda Gaku joins the adolescent research project “U.Z.U.” at MCNP, an institute specializing in psychological and neurological research, marking the beginning of his career as a therapist.
From midsummer to late autumn, Honda must simultaneously navigate the lives of three young girls and the complex relationships they are entangled in. Even among other patients, these three stand out—
- A runaway girl besieged by a hereditary disease and an impossible love,
- The daughter of a kyudo master, lost in paranoia and hallucinations,
- A cold and elusive foreign girl whose whereabouts are never certain.
Despite years of education and training, Honda must exhaust every resource to guide them back toward society; should he falter even slightly in his daily work, they might slip away into an unknown fate…
However, beyond simply maintaining good relationships with these young girls, Honda will have to face some real challenges. Otherwise, wouldn’t all of this be just a little too dull? "Right? Honda sen?"
