Setsu Sawamura is a teenager skilled in playing the Shamisen, a traditional Japanese musical instrument that is similar to a guitar. His grandfather, a renowned Shamisen player, nurtured his talent while he was growing up with his older brother Wakana. Setsu's life turned bleak following his grandfather's demise, which prompted him to quit high school and hitchhike in Tokyo, with the exception of playing his beloved Shamisen. Fortunately, his mother, Umeko, a rich and successful woman, intervened and sent Setsu back to high school. Setsu initially refused to shape up, but with his mother's support, he rediscovered his love for the Shamisen. In 2012, the manga won the Kodansha Manga Award for Shounen and received a nomination for the 23rd Annual Tezuka Osamu Cultural Prize.
