Nanami Kuon serves as bassist and vocalist for Azalea, a band forged in high school with guitarist Ichika and drummer Futaba. Bonded by a shared musical passion, the trio drifted from their creative roots under mounting commercial demands from producer Toshihito Karasawa, eroding their original artistic vision. Her journey crosses paths with Eiko Tsukimi during an unauthorized Shibuya street performance, where Eiko shields Nanami from authorities using her own permit. This sparks a collaboration marked by regular practice sessions and a deepening friendship. A pivotal shift occurs when witnessing Eiko and Kabetaijin’s performances rekindles Nanami’s emotional ties to music, realigning her with Azalea’s founding aspirations. Guided by Kongming’s strategy, the band captures 100,000 social media likes through a raw, authentic showcase, sparking a career resurgence. Post-triumph, Nanami mends ties with Karasawa—now reinstated as their producer—while mentoring Eiko’s burgeoning musical endeavors. Later pressured by Karasawa to abandon street performances and sever ties with Eiko, Nanami counters by confiding her personal struggles during a Shibuya Sky meeting, solidifying their bond. This vulnerability highlights her resolve to uphold her artistry against industry pressures. Nanami’s arc transforms her from an artist stifled by commercial expectations to one championing creative independence, harnessing her journey to empower others navigating the music world’s labyrinthine challenges.
