Life has been rough for 28‑year‑old Kyouya Hashiba. He quit his office position to chase a career in video‑game design, but the internship at a well‑known studio was cut short, leaving him jobless and forcing a return to his parents" home. His envy of the "Platinum Generation"—a cohort of peers who have already achieved fame—made him rue his choice to attend a conventional university rather than an art school. Though he once thought life offered no second chances, one morning he wakes up and discovers he has been sent back a decade.
Rejecting the business program he had planned, Kyouya enrolls at Oonaka University of Art. There he reunites with Eiko Kawasegawa, the same woman who hired him as an intern in the future, and meets new roommates who will become his Platinum Generation allies: struggling painter Aki Shino, hopeful singer‑actress Nanako Kogure, and naturally talented writer Tsurayuki Rokuonji.
Together on each creative venture, Kyouya and his companions inch closer to unlocking their true potential as creators, reshaping their lives into the perfect versions they long for. Their shared journey inspires others, proving that destiny can be rewritten.
