Returning home and school in spring
In April, Sanada Yukinari returned to Kamakura City, Kanagawa Prefecture, after seven years. The seaside school life originally made him look forward to peace, but it becomes lively as acquaintances and girls with different personalities appear one after another; The school's traditional beauty pageant also led to him being recruited by friends into the executive committee. The work thus connects the daily life of campus after returning home, event preparation, and character interactions.
