dreamer & singer
Mitsuki is a 12 year old girl with a strong passion for singing. Ever since she was a young girl she has dreamt for becoming a famous singer. However, there are many obstacles that stand in her way. She is currently suffering from cancer of the throat, making it not only painful to sing, but fatal to her health. On top of this she lived with her very strict grandmother, who would do almost everything in her power to prevent Mitsuki from leaving the house.
Becoming a singer is not only a dream for Mitsuki, but also a promise she made many years ago. When she was much younger a dear friend of hers had left for America in order to pursue his dream to become an astronaut. Before he left, he told Mitsuki that he would find her again one day, him as an astronaut and her as a singer. In order to fulfill this promise, Mitsuki is determined to sing, even if it means death.
One day Mitsuki is confronted by two spirits that represent the "God of Death". They have come to inform Mitsuki that she only has one year left to live. With this in mind, Mitsuki is even more determined to become a singer before she leaves the world. With the help of both Takuto and Meroko, Mitsuki defies her grandmother's wishes and reached for her goal.
However there is another problem. In order to audition to become a singer, Mitsuki must be at least sixteen years old. With this, Takuto gave Mitsuki a pill that gives her the ability to transform into a sixteen year old, although this is not permanent.
Mitsuki is a kind young girl with an innocent soul. Despite all the problems she must face she is still able to continue smiling for the world. Although this has become one of her draw backs, she is easily pushed around by loved ones and often fails to find the energy to fight for herself. She has a tendency to put other people's happiness before her own. She may only be 12 year olds, but Mitsuki is as very mature girl.
