Six prodigies attend Kanezono Academy of Music, each with a mysterious past and a “color” tied to their soul’s melody. The story follows Ren Hayami, a withdrawn violinist who hasn’t played since his sister’s suicide. On his first day, he hears her melody echoing through the old concert hall—played perfectly by a girl he’s never met.
Soon, Ren and the other students are drawn into the “Symphony of Souls”, a ritual that binds their emotions to music. Every performance drains something from them—memories, feelings, or fragments of life itself. To graduate, they must each compose their Final Piece, but the truth is grim: only one can complete it, and the rest will vanish into their own unfinished songs.

The spirit of the melody reached toward Ema, wrapping silver threads around her fingers. The pressure was immense, nearly suffocating.


Ema gasped. "If I falter… if I can't sustain it… I'll disappear too."


Ren's crimson threads wrapped around hers, stabilizing her aura. "We'll do this together. I won't let you vanish."


Tears streamed down her face as she continued playing. Every note drained her strength, but the melody was perfect, harmonizing with Ren's violin and Rei's voice.


For the first time, the melody responded willingly, not as a predator, but as a partner.
