The series opens with protagonist Kaito , a 16-year-old high schooler, reflecting on the summer that changed his life. Instead of a typical "training montage," the chapter focuses on subtle shifts: his strained relationship with his father, a part-time job that tests his patience, and a growing realization that childhood naivety is slipping away. The art style here is sharp, with warm, summery hues contrasting against Kaito’s internal monologue.
