Note (Attention)

While the story is relatively for all ages and can be enjoyed as such. There are some scenes that may disturb or cause anxiety for younger audiences, or those who are easily disturbed.

In addition, though the story is partially based of real events. It's solely a work of fiction that doesn’t represent any: individual, group or agency. Thus, it should be treated as such with that context in mind.

Characters:

The star attraction and leader of ♡beAt (Heartbeat), Core Haato, 16 with vibrancy and a cheerful disposition.
