Episode 1 Story

Arisu Yamabuki is the heir to a powerful conglomerate and proudly considers himself “a man promised perfection.” However, he believes that his ideal version of perfection is still missing “one final percent.”

In order to fill that missing piece, Arisu attends Furin High School while carrying out an unusual search for someone. The person he is looking for is “Apollo,” the streamer behind the late night radio program Tune In to the Midnight Heart, a voice he used to listen to almost every night.

Relying solely on that familiar voice as his only clue, Arisu attempts to identify Apollo from among his fellow students. One day, a voice he recognizes suddenly echoes from the school’s loudspeakers. Drawn to the sound, he rushes to the broadcasting room, where he finds not one, but four beautiful girls waiting inside.

Introduction

Late at night, alone on his bed――
only your voice was his salvation.

Arisu Yamabuki, the heir to a powerful conglomerate, strives for perfection in everything he does. Yet he continues searching for the final “1 percent” he needs to become 100 percent perfect. That missing piece was Apollo, the streamer behind the radio program Midnight Heart Tune, whose voice Arisu listened to night after night.

However, at the end of her first year of middle school, Apollo suddenly stopped streaming without telling Arisu anything.

Then comes the spring of Arisu’s second year of high school. Carefully laying his plans, Arisu enrolls at Furin High School, which has just transitioned from an all-girls school to coeducational. The only clue he has about Apollo, whose face and real name he does not know, is her voice.

One day, guided by a familiar voice, Arisu rushes to the school’s broadcasting club. There, he finds four girls who dream of working with their voices.

Rokka Inohana, who aims to become a singer.
Nene Himekawa, who wants to be a voice actress.
Iko Kirino, who is active as a VTuber.
Shinobu Uzuki, who aspires to be an announcer.

And yet, each of the girls carries a trace of Apollo――!?

Arisu declares that he will make all four of their dreams involving their “voices” come true, in order to fulfill the promise he once made with Apollo.

Thus begins a story of voices, dreams, and determination, shared by Arisu and four girls who pursue their dreams with unwavering dedication.
