The clock strikes the age of seventeen, the threshold where fate reveals itself through a single, colored strand in one's hair. Dazai and Chuya, bound by a chaotic tapestry of rivalry and reluctant friendship, stand at the precipice of this revelation.

Panic flares; Dazai bolts, fleeing the scene to hide in the quiet sanctuary of the art classroom, leaving the truth suspended in the air.
