Synopsis:
The series explores the complex emotional landscape of young adulthood through the intertwined lives of Hanabi Yasuraoka and Mugi Awaya. Presenting a facade of normalcy, both characters grapple with unrequited affections, finding themselves drawn to individuals unavailable to them. A shared sense of isolation leads Hanabi and Mugi to forge a unique bond, offering solace in their shared experiences of longing. Their relationship becomes a space for navigating emotional vulnerability, blurring the lines between companionship and a desperate attempt to fill a void. Set against the backdrop of high school life, the narrative delicately examines themes of love, loss, and the difficult choices made when faced with unattainable desires. The anime offers a contemplative look at the intricacies of human connection and the search for fulfillment in the face of enduring heartache.
