Arisa is a teenage musical mystery. A brilliant guitarist, Arisa has completed an exclusive performing arts school curriculum in one year. Admired and respected by her peers, Arisa is dubbed The Black Swan for her dark hair, looks, and solitary demeanor.
Arisa, however, keeps her deepest fears and doubts to herself. She furthers the enigma with her nocturnal travels through Osaka's backstreets, where the bottles break, to a supposedly abandoned building and its equally mysterious owner.
Then, Arisa meets her polar opposite: Yomi, a small-town girl, armed with a secondhand cello. Known as The White Bird, Arisa finds in Yomi a partner, a muse, and a person whose history is a complete unknown.
Surrounded by talented friends and artists, each with their own story, Arisa faces the most daunting musical, emotional, and human challenges. To honor the music that has inspired her, and those who make it, Arisa must trust herself to see if the Black Swan...and the White Bird may fly.
