Story Premise:
Set 53 years after the end of Da Capo (Nemu's story path, essentially as seen in the D.C./D.C.S.S. anime series), we return to Hatsumejima two generations later where the cherry blossoms are, once again, always in bloom. Yoshiyuki Sakurai was taken in by the Asakuras as a child and has many fond memories of his time spent with Junichi's two grandaughters, Otome and Yume. We catch up to him in his third year of Junior High, when he has since moved next door, home of the school principal Sakura Yoshino... Other characters include fellow band members Nanaka Shirakawa, Koko Tsukishima and Wataru Itabashi, fellow classmates Anzu Yukimura, Akane Hanasaki, and Suginami, and Yume's classmate Minatsu Amakase (among others - see the complete character chart here).
