It has been a long time since then and energetic but unsuspecting Tomako Kitashirakawa is about to graduate from high school . But she only has one concern: delivering an extraordinarily good performance with the baton at the Usagiyama Marching Festival.
But soon Tamako is plagued by other problems. Because while her school friends all have big plans for their personal future, Tamako plays with the idea of working in her parents' mochi shop after finishing school .
Mochizō also has big plans for the future, as he later wants to study at a university in Tokyo , which means that he has to move to the city and leave his friends and family, but also his first great love Tamako, behind. However, he is too shy to confess his feelings to her and Tamako himself has no idea. Time goes by and Mochizō has to overcome Tamako to confess his love before it's too late.

In September 2013 it was announced that a new project for the Tamako Market franchise was in progress.
