The musical compositions that dwell within girls become their power.

Legendary operas, grand compositions created in an era long ago.

“Musicartou”—new life breathed into those scores.

In a world where music is lost, the girls fight using the power of music in a fleeting, yet beautiful story of fate.

They merely aim for the joy that lies ahead.
