AIDA Yu

Outline

A high school student council shows how boys and girls live and struggle. The main character is KARASUYA, who gave up playing baseball due to too much pitching training in junior high school. He just idles away his time in high school and one day a girl president of the student council invites him to join the team. The two had a connection in the past and the story goes around throughout a day in summer. This piece has prompted the artist to create a series of works to describe energy, struggle, and love of high school boys and girls.
