Synopsis:

Ten years after a family's return to their old neighborhood, Kazuki finds her carefully constructed image of a cherished childhood friend irrevocably altered. Yuuji, once a figure of innocent affection and playful companionship with her and his sisters, reveals a surprising and somewhat disruptive maturity upon their reunion. With both families now sharing a household while their parents are abroad, the characters navigate the complexities of rekindled bonds and unspoken feelings amidst the everyday pressures of school life. The series explores themes of first love, shifting perceptions, and the challenges of adapting to unexpected changes when revisiting familiar landscapes. It portrays the awkwardness and subtle nuances of adolescence as long-held desires and youthful memories collide with present realities.
