Setsu's unconventional mother, Sawamura Umeko, has suddenly descended and forced him to enroll at Umezono Academy. In helping to assemble a shamisen which has lain long disused, he meets Maeda Shuri, a girl in the same grade as him. While all this is going on, Setsu reunites with his older brother, who he hasn't seen in a while, and they play shamisen together...
♫ Ah, in spring, they are 
delicately, deftly pruned ♫ 
♫ آه، وهي في الرّبيع
مقلّمة بدّقة وبراعة ♫ 
Ah, im Frühling werden sie geschickt
und leicht beschnitten.
Ah, en primavera,
se podan con cuidado y agilidad
Ah, en primavera
se podan con cuidado y agilidad
Ah, quand vient le printemps
A primavera
Ah, e na primavera elas são levemente podadas
А-а-а, и весной их слегка обрезают.
