Hatsuyuki Sakura follows the story of third-year high school student Kawano Hatsuyuki, the local delinquent enrolled in Shirosaki Gakuen. Threatened recently that he would fail his year, he reluctantly shows up to the school to fulfill his graduation requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the first night, that snow fell in December, Hatsuyuki encounters a girl dressed beautifully in white on the ruined old side of town. Strangely, the girl explains that she is wandering the streets in search of her rabbit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Several days later, the girl from that night, Tamaki Sakura, turns out to be the new transfer student in Hatsuyuki’s school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
