About
the work
The story
follows Haruto, a young man who grew up listening to a mysterious
late-night radio show hosted by someone he deeply admires. When the program
suddenly ceases broadcasting, Haruto decides to investigate the whereabouts of
the announcer. This search leads him to a small radio station and a peculiar
group of young people who work there. Together, they begin producing new shows
while uncovering secrets from the past, exploring the impact of voices on air,
and forging new friendships.
The first
season began airing on Japanese television on January 6, 2026, through Kansai
TV and Fuji TV. The original work, written and illustrated by mangaka Masakuni
Igarashi, began serialization in 2023. Manga has quickly established itself
in the industry thanks to its warm approach to broadcasting, teenage dreams,
and personal connections through sound waves.
