“Sorairo Utility”
Introduction
“At this rate, I’ll graduate as just a villager A!”

Minami Aoba was worried.
I don’t have anything in particular that I’m good at or that I want to do.
Is it okay for Hana’s high school life to end with such a mob character? ?

Minami runs away from school and searches for her own “special.”
I happened to arrive at a nearby golf practice range.
Minami picks up a golf club — a “utility” — when her part-time worker Haruka Akane calls out to her.
That was Minami’s first encounter with golf.

Golf is not just about playing and winning!
Everything about golf is fun!

Together with Haruka, a genius golfer, and Misaka Hoshi, who aims to become an influencer,
Searching for the moment when you can become the “hero”!
Minami, a super beginner, swings the club again today.
