The Anthem of the Heart
Jun Naruse carries the guilt of breaking up her family with the words she carelessly uttered when she was young. A mysterious "Egg Fairy" casts a curse on her that turns her mute. At high school, she's appointed to participate in the Regional Friendship Exchange Executive Committee. As it turns out, the group is a mix of students who all suffer from emotional trauma just like Jun.
