ましろのおと
Setsu Sawamura is a young man who has lost his passion for the shamisen after the death of his grandfather, Matsugorou Sawamura, a legendary master of the instrument. Following his grandfather's final advice to find his own unique sound rather than imitating others, Setsu leaves his rural home and heads to Tokyo, hoping the city will inspire him. There, he struggles to find his place, as the overwhelming noise of urban life only deepens his confusion.
His mother, Umeko, enrolls him at Umezono Academy, where he meets Shuri Maeda, a girl fascinated by the Tsugaru shamisen. She starts a shamisen appreciation club and asks Setsu to teach its members. As he becomes involved with the club and takes on a gig at a local club, Setsu must confront his grief and search for the sound that is truly his own.
