Synopsis for Yofukashi no Uta
On the surface, Kou Yamori seems like a typical high school student, relatively good at studies and kind to his classmates, and he tries very hard to maintain this facade. One day, however, he decides to stop pretending and drops out of school, developing insomnia as a result of not having an outlet for his energy during the day. When he walks alone at night, he feels a little better, although he is aware that his inability to sleep must be considered a serious problem.
On one of those walks, Kou meets a strange girl, Nazuna Nanakusa, who diagnoses the cause of her insomnia; despite making changes in his life, he still prevents himself from experiencing true freedom. She says that she won’t be able to sleep unless he is satisfied with the way she spends her waking hours. When he seems like he has resolved his current concerns, Nazuna invites him back to her apartment to share her futon. After a while, unaware that he is only feigning unconsciousness, she leans over him and bites his neck.
