About This Game

Story

One Christmas Eve night, two old friends reunite in a certain church. Yuu Himura and Yuuko Amamiya haven't seen each other in many years, and they spend this holy night recounting tales of their pasts, and the many other people whose lives they have touched which ultimately led to their reunion.


In this first tale, Yuuko begins to tell Yuu the story of an aspiring manga artist, Hiro Hirono, and the free-spirited young woman who comes into his life following a purse-snatching, Miyako Miyamuira, on one similar Christmas Eve...
