Synopsis

Hōtarō doesn't like to do things that he considers a waste of energy. However, things start to change when he joins the memberless Classics Club that is on the verge of dissolution. There, he meets Eru, a gorgeous yet mysterious girl with a hearty curiosity. Although she seems shy and reserved, once she utters the fateful words “I need to know!”, her tenacious curiosity is unstoppable. One day, Eru asks Hōtarō for his help in solving a school’s 33-year-old mystery involving her uncle, a former Classics Club member who has gone missing. As Hōtarō attempt to unearth the truth behind the disappearance of Eru’s uncle, he finds traces of clues that her uncle’s secret is locked inside a tragic tale, found within a club’s mysterious anthology entitled “Hyouka.”
