Listeners who want a tender, tearful tale of reunion and farewell, wrapped in Mimori Aino's soft, healing voice.
For one day during a summer festival, a departed underclassman returns to spend time with the senior she once loved, confessing her feelings before she must disappear again. Set against shrine visits and fireworks under the evening sky, it's a gentle, bittersweet story told through close whispers and tender monologues addressed directly to "senpai."
It's the day of the summer festival, held once a year. Rikka, "your" junior, was killed in a traffic accident on the very day of that summer festival. Since then, three years have passed. As if leaving "your" feelings behind, three years have gone by. Summer is coming again this year. The day of the once-a-year summer festival. "I've always, always looked forward to going to the summer festival with you, senpai." "I wonder if it's lingering attachment to this world." "I came back, just for today." "Do you... still like me?" "Even now, three years later, do you still think of me?" Rikka has returned to "you" for just one day. As if trying to reclaim that day three years ago, the two of them go to the summer festival together. They eat all sorts of delicious food, play at the shooting gallery, embrace each other alone at an empty shrine, enjoy sparklers together... It should be fun. It should be joyful. It should be happy. Yet seeing "you," now grown, "Rikka, frozen in time three years ago" feels confused, and keenly realizes that she no longer belongs to this world. And then the fireworks display begins. As the fireworks rise into the sky, Rikka confesses her feelings to "you." The 14th work from circle Re:sound, themed around "a girl who lacks confidence in herself." Sweet like apple candy, fleeting like cotton candy that melts the moment it touches your tongue—this is the story of you and me. A fleeting, momentary monologue that lasts only a single day. "The fireworks are rising." "The fireworks are rising." "As if carrying everyone's feelings, as if symbolizing a bright future." "The fireworks are rising." "Even the memories that should have been precious." "Even the feelings of love." "All of it, all of it, disappears into the night sky."
"Your" junior, who died in a traffic accident on the day of the summer festival. She returns for just one day, on the summer festival three years later. She's not good at putting things into words, and there's much she keeps to herself, though she's always thinking. She has a young, sweet voice, and speaks her true feelings during the monologues. In Scene 7, the voice actress herself performs while genuinely crying.

A beautiful yet fleeting, strange tale of one summer. I don't want summer to end. If only summer could go on forever, I could keep enjoying this moving work forever... It's beautiful enough to pierce your heart, and unbearably bittersweet. That indescribable, sentimental feeling you get when summer ends, or when a festival ends—if you love that feeling, this work will be irresistible to you. A junior kouhai girl who shouldn't exist. A story of a possibility that should have happened but didn't. The fleeting, strange memory of one summer told in this work is something that seemed possible yet could never have happened. It's a beautiful, fleeting dream story that's entirely self-contained. Honestly, there's no way I could forget this. Telling me not to cry over this is asking the impossible. I cried. The choice of words is so delicate and beautiful... Mimori Aino's performance is also wonderful, fitting perfectly for a girl named Rikka, and I imagine every time the end of summer comes around, I'll remember this and feel that bittersweet ache again. It was that kind of story—a wonderful tale of summer's end that struck my heart with such intensity.
This is a story-based work by Mimori Aino-san, who I usually rely on for her erotic works. It's a story about a beloved kouhai who died in a traffic accident coming back for just one day during a summer festival to go on a date, and it moved me more than I expected. The ending also has a happy conclusion, so if you like happy endings, please give it a listen.
Rikka is such an endearing character, almost pitiably so, and the way she enjoys the summer festival with a slightly innocent air... Combined with all of that, there were moments throughout the monologue where my chest felt tight with emotion. However, after listening to a story that feels like a kind of salvation for the two of them, what remains isn't just sadness—it's a feeling of being glad I listened. Mimori-san's performance felt truly genuine, capturing not only Rikka's cuteness and fragility but also delivering some scenes that moved my heart intensely. The illustrations, too, with their faint smiles and deeply poignant expressions, struck right at my heart. I actually teared up just from the work's page, so if reading the description sparks your interest, I highly recommend giving it a listen.
