バラードまでそばにいて, Until the Next Ballad
Nomura Hiromi is an aspiration-less girl who is feeling left behind. One day, she catches a glimpse of her classmate Miyamoto Hiroshi's singing form and is moved by his song. Hiromi had always thought that Miyamoto felt as lost as she did, but it turns out he is aiming to become a professional singer. Hiromi decides that she too will aim to become a singer.
Ever since he was small, all the girls in the neighborhood have fawned over Tsutomu Yamaguchi, whose name came from a song and whose adorable face closely resembles the monkey character Monchichi's. Even back then, it was enough to make his friend and neighbor Mikako sick. Now that he's a little more grown, Tsutomu looks like the lead vocalist of Manbou, Ken Nakagawa (Midori friend/boyfriend from Tenshi Nanka Ja Nai; we meet main characters from Tenshi on market/fest), and that makes him even more popular with the ladies. But Mikako--now a trendy teen with modern sensibilities--couldn't care less. Or could she...? Gokinjo Monogatari is a sharp-witted and stylish slice-of-life story! Continuation (after years) in Paradise Kiss.
