In the opening scene, Hananoi discusses his view of love as a unique devotion meant for only one person, hinting at a breakup due to unfulfilled expectations of love! Hibiki and Hotaru witness this separation. Hibiki recognizes Hananoi as a popular boy from a neighboring class, a detail unknown to Hotaru due to her disinterest in romantic pursuits.
Hotaru, a nearly sixteen-year-old schoolgirl, values her peaceful life with familial and friendly bonds more than romantic entanglements. When she encounters Hananoi after a breakup without an umbrella, she shares hers with him.
Although Hotaru has no interest in romantic relationships, Hananoi's direct approach—confessing his feelings and asking her out—makes her ponder the nature of love. Her refusal to go on a date with him doesn't deter him! He continues his efforts to win her over, expressing his belief that they are soulmates—sparked by her simple act of sharing an umbrella.
Hananoi's attempts to align with Hotaru's preferences, including changing his hairstyle and discussing her likes, show his serious commitment to pursuing a relationship. Despite her initial reluctance, Hotaru finds herself in situations with Hananoi, from sharing lunch to him adjusting his appearance to her taste, signaling his willingness to change for her.
Hananoi's persistent actions—from altering his looks to searching for Hotaru's lost item in the snow—demonstrate his growing affection, culminating in Hotaru reevaluating her stance on love and relationships.
Ultimately, Hotaru agrees to explore a relationship with Hananoi, stepping into unfamiliar emotional territory.
