Lights of the Clione - S01

Minori Amamiya is an orphaned girl who misses school often because of a chronic illness. These absences make her an easy target for bullying by her middle school classmates, who constantly torment her with malicious rumors. Not all of her classmates victimize her, but they lack the courage to stand up for Minori, afraid they will be the next target. However, two of Minori's peers, Takashi Aoi and Kyouko Tsukihashi, finally decide something must be done. Too timid to act directly, they make a plan to befriend Minori outside of school hours and give her depressing life some joy.
