Synopsis

Daiyoshi Asano is a boy who plays the trombone for the brass band club at Funabashi Municipal High School.  Above all else, he hugely admires and is greatly influenced by his teacher, Kenichi Takahashi. With obvious talent, he is given the challenge of composing an original cheer song for the Ichifune Baseball Club. While struggling to compose his first music, he is encouraged by Mr. Takahashi and his best friend Toma Saeki, as well as being supported by his mother, Keiko. And so, the song “Ichifune Soul” is born, immediately labelled by the team as a “divine, cheering song”. After graduating from high school, Daiyoshi enters a music college in the hope of becoming a teacher, but a medical examination reveals that he is suffering from cancer.
