Director Keizo Kusakawa
The story is serialized in Shonen Magazine and is about a love story and a music band,
This work is a new genre challenge for me.
I took Seo's traditional worldview from his previous works and used it to create a story that respects the original work, but is also a new genre for me,
While respecting the original work, there are also developments unique to the anime, so please look forward to it!

Lynn (Playing the role of Kazatsu Akizuki)

I am a charming and lovable girl named Kazatsu.
I would like to deliver the powerful energy of this work to you all.
I will play my role with fun and all my might, wearing a hot wind in my heart just like her!
Thank you very much for your kind cooperation!

I am looking forward to seeing the animation depicting the interplay of the characters' various feelings, both as the character of Koyuki and as myself.
I would be very happy if you could watch from the very first episode. Thank you very much.

Yusuke Kobayashi (Yu Haruna)
I have the honor of playing the role of Yu Haruna!
He tends to be dependent on social networking sites and keeps to himself,
I would like to play the role with great care as he gradually comes to reveal himself through love and music.
I would like to play the role with great care!
