Synopsis:
This OVA presents two vignettes exploring diverse perspectives on romance and commitment. The first follows a group of young women re-entering society after a hiatus from school, grappling with expectations surrounding marriage. Shizuka, in particular, struggles with self-doubt and shyness as she navigates the world of dating services, questioning her chances of finding a partner. The second story centers on five sisters, where the independent Kiyomi resists societal pressure to marry. Her sisters orchestrate an impromptu proposal, but Kiyomi’s reserved nature complicates their plans. Both narratives subtly examine the complexities of personal desires versus familial expectations in the pursuit of love and the challenges inherent in forging meaningful connections. The anime offers a nuanced portrayal of relationships, emphasizing internal conflict and the difficulties of finding compatibility.
