The original, definitive collection of Hanakisou's frozen, sorrowful sound. This 2004 PS2 and Windows visual novel by Takuyo has one of the most emotionally committed soundtracks in the genre. "花帰葬" (Flower Funeral) is the central motif, appearing in multiple arrangements across the tracklist, each one reframing the same grief differently.

"Nevicata" drifts like snow falling in slow motion, and "Agnus Dei" brings this sacred, choral weight that elevates everything around it. The bonus section is where it gets interesting. "或るK氏の？" and "研究者★" are playful variants of serious tracks, like finding comedy sketches hidden behind a tragedy.
"ナゾ？" literally means "Mystery?" with a question mark and everything. 45 tracks deep and it still holds together as one continuous emotional arc. If you only listen to one visual novel soundtrack from 2004, make it this one and bring tissues.
