Totsuko is a high school student with the ability to see the 'colors' of others. Colors of bliss, excitement, and serenity, plus a color she treasures as her favorite. Kimi, a classmate at her school, gives off the most beautiful color of all. Although she doesn't play an instrument, Totsuko forms a band with Kimi and Rui, a quiet music enthusiast they meet at a used bookstore in a far corner of town.

Jordan Aug 22 It was a good movie with good music but I couldn't understand the plot at all. See more Gabriella Jun 17 Beautiful movie with beautiful music. The animation is really pretty and crisp. Nothing about the movie I didn’t enjoy (: See more Luis G Feb 2 Beautifully animated, wonderful story and music. A must see!! See more Shreya Jan 31 Loved it! Great music. See more Philip A. Jones (SonicPAJ) Jan 31 Great wholesome movie. Slow paced but the likeable characters and their journey was worth it. The art direction and surprisingly great music really sell this as a unique experience. Good dub too. The main character sounded like my little cousin.
