## Description
My name is Tachibana Yuuji, a regular student with no particular plans for the future - until my parents left for Hawaii on a business trip last fall, leaving me in the care of my uncle in the wintry countryside of Hokkaido.

Small-town life on Japan's northern island didn't have time to get dull, as from the moment I got there I was reunited with my cousin and childhood friend Saki. She's pretty demanding, but when I'm hanging out with her and her school friends I don't mind; as I get close to them I feel like I'm finding meaning in life that I didn't know I was looking for.

Legend says there is a flower that blooms here in the depth of winter... as the twilight deepens and a snowflake melts in the palm of my hand, I stand with a beautiful girl by my side. Will we be able to uncover its mystery in this fleeting moment?

## Characters
### Tachibana Yuuji (橘 裕志)
Yuuji's parents had to leave suddenly for Hawaii on a business transfer so it was arranged by [url=https://vndb.org/c56152]Yuuji's father[/url] that he should move to Hokkaido to live with his uncle [url=https://vndb.org/c22207]Takeaki[/url] and cousin [url=https://vndb.org/c189]Saki[/url]. For Yuuji, who led an urban lifestyle in Tokyo for so long, the new kind of life in the wintry countryside of Hokkaido might prove to be difficult. What awaits Yuuji at his new residence are sleepless mornings, new friendships, new love interests, and lots of snow shoveling.

[spoiler]He is the direct descendent of the woman who planted the snow sakura tree.[/spoiler]
