Story

Asahikawa, Hokkaido. This is the city where Sakurako lives. Sakurako is the beautiful young lady of a prestigious family, but loves bones more than anything else. By being together with her, it seems I get connected to bones for some reason as well. I'm always tossed around between incidents concerning bones and Sakurako, but the reason I don't hate it must be because of you, Sakurako.
