For Yamano, a second-year high school student quietly nursing a deep affection for his classmate Tanigawa, the season takes an unimaginable turn when she suddenly appears before him—not in the flesh, but as a ghost. It quickly becomes apparent that Tanigawa has met a tragic end, her life cut short after becoming entangled in a mysterious incident.

Set against the backdrop of sun-drenched days and haunting revelations, the story weaves together themes of youth, loss, and the lengths one will go to protect someone they cherish. What unfolds is a delicate, bittersweet mystery—a fleeting exploration of love and mortality that lingers long after the summer ends.
