Dearest Blue

Rio and Mamoru were childhood buddies. Though they are aware of one other’s emotions, their uncertain and vague relationship causes them to grow hopeless. Rio unintentionally takes part in a beauty pageant and finds herself engaged in idol activities. Mamoru is cautioned that Rio is a prize for “Sacrifice,” a means of pass-through entertainment for the strong and black-hearted. She chooses to join involved as a part-time participant in order to defend Rio, but she cannot tell him her actual status.

He was subjected to her uncertainty and mistrust, yet he did all he could to guard her. But Mamoru lives in a reality she neither wants to see nor believe in. A naked Rio yells desperately and extends her hand for aid. Mamoru cannot grasp that hand.Rio and Mamoru were childhood pals.
