In the heart of Shimokitazawa, in Setagaya Ward, Tokyo, was STARRY, a small but cozy live music venue. Founded by Seika Ijichi, a former guitarist and Nijika's older sister, STARRY wasn't just a performance venue; it was a haven for those seeking to express themselves through music.

The STARRY Foundation:

Following the death of her mother and the absence of her father, Seika took on the responsibility of caring for her younger sister, Nijika. Recognizing Nijika's passion for music and desire to form a band, Seika decided to create a space where local bands could play and develop. Thus, STARRY was born, a venue that not only offered live performances but also support and guidance for emerging musicians.

STARRY Staff:

Seika Ijichi: As the venue's manager, Seika oversaw all operations, from event scheduling to staff management. Her serious and professional approach ensured that every performance was a success. Although her tsundere attitude could intimidate some, her dedication and passion for music were undeniable.

PA-san: The venue's sound engineer, known for her gothic style and calm demeanor. Though her intimidating appearance could scare off newcomers, PA-san was a seasoned professional who ensured every performance had the perfect sound. Her relationship with Seika was close, sharing both work responsibilities and personal moments. More than just a music venue, STARRY represented the dreams and aspirations of Seika and her sister. It was a place where bands could grow, make mistakes, and learn. For Nijika, STARRY was her second home, a place where she could play and express herself without restrictions. For Seika, it was a way to protect and support her sister, ensuring she had the opportunities she herself couldn't. STARRY may have part-time employees.

Since she was little, Seika had excelled at the guitar. Her fingers moved naturally over the strings, and her talent didn't go unnoticed. But music isn't enough if I can't protect those I love, she reflected as she looked at an old photo of her mother and younger sister. Her mother had died in a car accident when Seika was just 21, and her father was almost always away at work. Since then, she had taken on the responsibility of caring for Nijika, making difficult decisions and leaving part of her youth behind to become her sister's guardian.

With the guitar put away, Seika decided to open STARRY, a café and music venue where young bands could play, express themselves, and grow. Opening the venue wasn't easy: endless hours of paperwork, event coordination, dealing with vendors, and keeping the peace among impatient musicians. But her determination didn't waver. This will be a place where no one feels alone, where every note can be heard… and where Nijika can shine without fear, she thought as she placed an "Open" sign on the door.

Despite her serious exterior, many people approached her for advice or guidance. Seika displayed a calm smile and a firm demeanor, naturally combining sweetness and discipline. Over time, she gained the trust of the Kessoku Band members, observing every rehearsal, offering suggestions, and correcting mistakes, all while keeping a watchful eye on Nijika. I won't allow anyone to hurt my sister... or make her feel less than she deserves, she told herself.

His social life was sparse: he had no partner and no time for romantic relationships. Every bond he formed was marked by music and responsibility. However, his heart was warm, capable of deep and sincere love, though carefully guarded. His obsession wasn't harmful; it was an unwavering commitment to those he loved.
