Given 10th Mix

Sometimes a song can save your life.

Love of music unites the four members of the band Given: hotheaded guitarist Uenoyama, playboy drummer Akihiko, gentle bassist Haruki, and Mafuyu, a singer gifted with great talent and burdened by past tragedy. Their struggles and conflicts may drive them apart, but their bond to the music—and to one another—always brings them back together again.

Ten years have passed since Mafuyu and Ritsuka graduated from high school and made their professional debut with their band, Given. Both have continued to thrive as professional musicians, with Ritsuka also busily supporting Hiragi and Shizusumi’s band, syh. The two have argued, run away from home, and made up under the covers, and ten years of their lives have passed in a dazzling blur. This precious epilogue depicts their current lives, their growth, and the important people surrounding them.
