Lore[]
Item Descriptions[]
My family moved when I was in junior high. My new neighbor next door was a nice girl at my age.
— Young and Reckless
All my friendship was fruitless due to my dad's job transfer. I got to love rock music.
— Beating Life
One day, I fought with some boys again at the school gate. A girl blocked my move suddenly.
— Rebellious Age
'Hey! Is bullying girls all you are capable of?' The boys have run away before I calmed down from shock.
— Cicada Sing in Summer
She nervously grabbed hold of me. I recognized her--the good girl next door who loves classic music.
— Start of Friendship
After a long conversation, I surprisingly found that she is tender but brave and always can figure things out.
— Casual Pace
We became friends and she got used to rock music. I gave her my long treasured records when moving away.
— Say Goodbye to Youth
With an unexpected decision of moving, I had to end this unique friendship before completing the song for her.
— Write Your Memory
With birds singing in the fresh air, sunlight shines through leaves, brightening her smiling face.
— Gentle Shot
Though like two various melodies, we played a harmonious sonata. I will cherish the summer in the future.
— Precious Memory
Interpretation[]
The suit describes a young girl, Tina, who has just moved in and loves rock music. Tina is described as unruly and strong. She soon gets bullied by boys from school, until another girl her age (Flower Season Melody)—Xiaxia, her shy neighbour who loves classical music—defends her.
The two form a close friendship and feelings for each other. Tina describes Xiaxia to be, "tender but brave and can always figure things out". They share and admire each others' music before, to her surprise, she has to move out once more. She gives her teary eyed crush Xiaxia some of her old records and she fondly remembers the friendship they had, but moves on to the future.
In Symphonic Poem of Future, she grows up and reunites with her old friend (Soul Blues) again.
