If you could fundamentally understand people and the meaning behind their words, how would that change you?

As a child, Marou Miyashita had a unique ability—he could see deep into people's souls. By focusing his gaze onto the stars that seemingly filled people's eyes, he would be able to discern who individuals were, what they were thinking and what their words truly meant, among other things. With this, he quickly garnered the attention and praise of those around him.

When you understand an individual's fundamental being, it's easy to get along.

However, following an incident in his senior year of junior high, Marou began to notice something odd. When he looked into people's eyes, the bright light from them that never bothered him before, started to burn, and as time went on, it became unbearable.

...Until his second year in high school.

Marou stumbles upon the hot topic of his school, the exchange student, Reiko Chitose! Whether her flamboyant, unpretentious attitude or dazzling yet gentle beauty, everyone had something to say about her. But what no one else saw—and what Marou took notice of the most—were her starless blue eyes. Without stars, there was nothing but her bright personality that was blinding.

With her now in the picture, how would Marou's life change? Could she hold the answers to the origins of his power? Would she be able to fix his ability? Or will Marou learn to live without it?
