Shinobu is a Seisou graduate, who is in his 3rd year of college currently. He comes over to the academy three days a week to observe and lead practice in the Orchestra Club. He is the one of the characters who plays more than one instrument, majoring in violin and playing a little of the viola. In the past, when he was still a student at Seisou, he won the competition. His sole reason for playing the violin is for others to enjoy music the way he does. He has a gentle heart, and was the one who cheered Kahoko up after she started questioning her abilities when relying on the magical violin compared to the music department's students who hard work in Episode 12. He teaches children who hope to be violinists in the future, and has requested help from the concour participants to help him with it.

Hino Kahoko is a student whose school is divided into two branches - the Normal Branch, in which students wear grey uniforms, and the Music Branch, in which the students wear white. The school's tradition is a music competition, but it it more common that students from the Music Branch are chosen to compete. Kahoko is surprised one day to encounter a fairy named Lili. Solely because she is the only student to see him, she is the only student from the Normal Branch to be in the competition. 
Kahoko doesn't have any musical knowledge, until Lili grants her a magic violin, one that anyone can play if they believe they can truly do it. Kahoko must now face the trials of the competition, her competitors, and her peers.
