The staff of a literary magazine worries about the poor state of the book publishing industry. A handwritten manuscript is sent to their newcomer's contest. Since the contest only accepts web submissions the manuscript is supposed to be thrown away, but it catches the eye of an editor called Hanai. The manuscript is under the name Hibiki Akui but has no contact address. Meanwhile an eccentric girl called Hibiki is entering high school and decides to join the school's literature club.
