One night, young Gen Minahiro escapes from a reformatory with only one witness: the moon.

Years earlier Gen, now nicknamed Don-chan, spends his days with Tetsuya. The two are inseparable and enjoy themselves playing with Don-chan's ability to guess people's thoughts and portray them through drawings.

They quickly become friends and, beneath a benevolent moon, Don-chan promises to portray her every year for her birthday.

Years later, a terrible event radically changes their lives...
