Become You Vol. 1 cover

A high school musician, Ashie Taiyou, faces adversity when his bandmates leave. Desperate, he persuades classmate Hikari to join him. Together, they strive to realize their dreams in Become You Vol. 1.

Become You Vol. 1 follows the journey of Ashie Taiyou, a passionate high school musician who aspires to achieve stardom. However, his dreams face a significant setback when his bandmates decide to leave, leaving him feeling lost and disheartened. In a moment of desperation, Taiyou approaches his withdrawn classmate, Hikari, and persuades him to join forces to create a new band. This unexpected partnership sets the stage for a story about ambition, friendship, and the pursuit of dreams.

As the two boys navigate the challenges of forming a band, they must confront their own insecurities and the dynamics of their relationship. Taiyou's determination clashes with Hikari's reluctance, creating a tension that drives the narrative forward. Through their interactions, the story explores themes of resilience and the power of collaboration. Will their combined efforts lead them to success, or will their differences prove too great to overcome?

Created by Ichigo Takano, known for works like orange and Dreamin’ Sun, this manga is a collaboration with the band Kobukuro, inspired by their song Kimi ni Nare. This multimedia project aims to inspire hope and encourage readers to pursue their aspirations, no matter the obstacles they face. Become You Vol. 1 is not just a tale of music; it is a heartfelt exploration of personal growth and the bonds that can form when individuals come together to chase their dreams.
