In the anime, Aine-chan doesn't show up until halfway through the series! &Lambda;ucifer has gone through a lot to become a popular band when Sakuya finally meets Aine after almost running her over with his motorcycle. Aine's personality is still shy, but she is not nearly as spineless as she seems in the manga. Aine is a very lonely girl. Her parents are never home, and when they are, they argue a lot and ignore her. At school, she has a boyfriend, but he is rude to her, and is just using her to do his homework for him. She does have two girls who are friends, but they are so carefree and band-crazy, that she doesn't feel much of a connection with them. To fill her loneliness, Aine-chan writes a song that she puts her emotions into. After meeting Sakuya, she leaves her lyrics behind by mistake. He finds them and becomes interested in Aine. Once she is recruited as &Lambda;ucifer's songwriter, she works hard to write music for them. Her relationship with Sakuya builds MUCH more slowly. 

After the break up of their old band, guitarist Yuki &amp; drummer Santa decide to form a new one. They recruit bass player Towa, young guitarist Atsuro, and after much persuasion, vocalist Sakuya. Together they form Lucifer and they struggle to make it in the music business, and also to stay together. As well, they have to deal with personal issues, such as parental objections, and watching their old bands succeed ahead of them. Sakuya is the most troubled band member, as he has to deal with his tragic past, and his relationship with teenaged lyricist Aine.

As a budding poet and lyricist, Aine is on her way to an audition one fateful afternoon. Absentmindedly stepping into the street, she barely avoids getting struck by an oncoming vehicle. Not only is the cute teenager lucky to be alive, but her brush with death turns out to be a date with destiny. The driver of the car just happens to be Sakuya, the charismatic and fabulously handsome lead singer for a band called Lucifer. In short order, Sakuya and his crew compose a song using Aine's lyrics. The tune proves popular with the band's fans and Sakuya decides he wants a relationship, both professional and personal, with Aine. There's only one small requirement: The lyrics Aine writes must be erotically charged. And guess what? Sakuya fully intends to introduce the young and inexperienced girl into the world of sensual delights. Does Sakuya actually care for Aine, or is she just another sexual conquest for him? Will Aine fulfill her dreams and become a professional lyricist, or has she simply sold her soul to Lucifer?
