Love of music unites the four members of the band Given: hotheaded guitarist Uenoyama, playboy drummer Akihiko, gentle bassist Haruki, and Mafuyu, a singer gifted with great talent and burdened by past tragedy. Their struggles and conflicts may drive them apart, but their bond to the music—and to one another—always brings them back together again.

Ritsuka Uenoyama is bored with it all—with school, with his basketball club, and even with his one true passion: playing guitar. That is, until the day he finds his favorite hidden napping spot occupied by a strange boy cradling a broken-stringed guitar. At first, Uenoyama is nonplussed by Mafuyu Sato and his slightly odd behavior, but when, on a whim, he asks Mafuyu to sing, the power of that song pierces him to the core.

 

直入心臟，無法自拔──
真冬的歌聲是瘋狂的凶器。
 

曾經熱愛的吉他，
曾經投入的籃球，
自從某一天起開始褪去了色彩──
這樣的上山遇見了抱著故障吉他的真冬，
幫忙修琴之後突然得到了對方的信任。
而當他聽見真冬偶然從口中吟唱出的歌聲，內心深深被打動──
キヅナツキ筆下赤裸裸的另類音樂愛情故事！
