When tragedy struck Riki Naoe as a child, he was rescued from grief over his parents' deaths when four other kids "recruited" him for their group—the "Little Busters." Now in high school, Riki and the other Busters are still fast friends, and though their vision of being heroes for justice may have faded, they'd still do anything for each other. Which is why Riki is now on TWO special missions. The not so secret one: recruiting new members so the Busters can form a baseball team. Preferably FEMALE recruits, as the current dude/babe ratio is an inconvenient 4 to 1. The OTHER mission, though... That's the strange one. Because Riki and Rin, the group's singular girl, are receiving odd messages, delivered by cats, concerning the existence of a "secret world" and assigning them tasks they have to complete. Were their youthful dreams of being crusaders not so fanciful after all? Or is there something even more vital at stake? Between steeling his courage to talk to girls, dealing with his own narcolepsy and facing his feelings concerning Rin, Riki may just need the strength of a superhero to solve the ultimate mystery of the Little Busters!

The Little Busters may have completed their baseball team, but the game isn’t over yet as Riki discovers that they are reliving the same day over and over again. As Riki sets out to unravel the cause of one strange occurrence, he stumbles upon many more as he grows closer to learning the reason behind his narcolepsy and the secrets of the world. But the closer Riki grows to the truth, the further the Little Busters drift apart as the mystery of their world begins to unravel.

This is a "what-if" story.

Welcome to an alternate version of Little Busters! The field trip ended without incident, and Kudryavka Noumi and Riki Naoe are now a couple.

Due to an issue with the boys' dorm renovation, Riki is left without anywhere to stay over summer vacation. He's at a loss until Kud tells him...

"I'm, um, still looking for a roommate..."

Thus begins Riki's summer with Kud, which brings them all sorts of new missions. What impact will these experiences leave on them...?
