The story
Hitori Gotou, known online as "Guitar Hero," is a middle schooler who practices guitar six hours daily, driven by a desire to join a band and overcome her extreme shyness. Despite her aspirations, she struggles to make friends and finds herself entering high school without ever forming a band or performing live. Her dream of playing at a school cultural festival remains unfulfilled due to her profound social anxiety.
The story begins when Nijika Ijichi, the drummer of Kessoku Band, discovers Hitori and invites her to join. This unexpected invitation offers Hitori a chance to finally connect with others and perform her music. The series explores Hitori's journey as she navigates the challenges of being in a band, forming friendships, and slowly confronting her introverted nature, all while pursuing her passion for rock music.
