“Love makes people strong”... This is a love story of a timid basketball player and a strong-willed violinist reaching for their dreams. Naoki had had an impressive basketball career in his college days. Yet, his weakness towards pressure had been keeping him from playing up to his full potential since turning professional. On the other hand, Riko is a freshly graduated violinist, who had not been able to get opportunity to turn professional. One day, Riko encounters Naoki practicing in a park behind her house. Riko cheers up Naoki by telling him that she will be his first fan.
