Synopsis:

Set against a backdrop of everyday life in a quiet community, this series explores the subtle dynamics between siblings and the challenges of growing up. The narrative centers around the complex relationship between a younger brother and his older sibling, navigating familial expectations and individual aspirations. Focusing on nuanced character interactions rather than grand conflicts, the anime portrays moments of shared vulnerability and unspoken understanding. It delicately examines themes of responsibility, identity formation, and the bittersweet nature of changing relationships as individuals pursue their own paths. The atmosphere is gentle and contemplative, inviting viewers to observe the small details that shape personal histories and the enduring bonds of family. It offers a quiet reflection on the passage of time and the evolving connections between those closest to us.
