Synopsis of Yofukashi no Uta

Kou Yamori seems like a typical high school student. Relatively good at his studies and kind to his classmates, he struggles to maintain this facade. One day, however, he decides to stop pretending and drops out of school, developing insomnia due to having no outlet for his energy during the day. When he goes for a walk alone at night, he feels a little better, although he knows his inability to sleep should be considered a serious problem.

On one of these walks, Kou meets a strange girl, Nazuna Nanakusa, who diagnoses the cause of his insomnia: despite making changes in his life, it continues to prevent him from experiencing true freedom. She tells him that he won't be able to sleep if he's not satisfied with the way he spends his waking hours. When he seems to have resolved his current concerns, Nazuna invites him to her apartment to share her futon. After a while, unaware that he's only pretending to be unconscious, she leans over him and bites his neck.
