Ever since his twenties, Natsume Shunpei had gained worldwide recognition as a conductor and had been residing overseas, collaborating with prestigious orchestras. His deep love for music served as an inspiration for fellow musicians. However, Natsume Shunpei lacked any skills apart from music, struggling with even basic tasks like household chores. His entire existence revolved around himself and his musical pursuits. A life-altering event caused Natsume Shunpei's family, including his daughter Natsume Hibiki, to depart from him, leading him to exit the music scene as well. After a span of five years, Natsume Shunpei made a long-awaited return to Japan to lead an orchestra in a rural area. Reuniting with his daughter Hibiki, whom he had not seen in half a decade, they decided to live together. In contrast to her father, Natsume Hibiki held a disdain for music and chose to lead a music-free life. Blinded by his musical genius, Natsume Shunpei remained oblivious to his daughter's sentiments. As he navigates the role of a father to Hibiki, their lives, which had come to a standstill five years prior, slowly begin to regain momentum.
