【d2b vs DEARDROPS-Cross the Future-】
A few years later than the main story of DEARDROPS.

It was a scene that I saw on the TV in my office that I turned on casually.
Kirari, a diva based in the U.S. who has been active overseas, and
The violin virtuoso Shoichi Suganuma, who is still active overseas after recovering from a setback, performs together.
That was the stance taken in the program.

I should be happy to see Shoichi, but my heart is buzzing.
Shoichi is happily playing next to Kirari.
The smile on her face seemed to be more joyful than usual.

–Can I beat Kirari? –Can I beat Kirari?

At that time, I never dreamed that I would really have a direct confrontation with Kirari.
