Film Synopsis
Taku
Morisaki (voiced by Nobuo Tobita) is heading back to his hometown of Koichi
for the summer. While waiting on the train platform, he thinks he sees a
familiar face of woman on the other side of the station. The chance encounter
gets him thinking about a girl he once knew in high school, Rikako Muto (voiced
by Yoko Sakamoto).
Our story
jumps back two years when Rikako first transferred to Taku’s school.
Almost instantly, Rikako establishes herself as a top student, but is a little standoffish.
She has trouble getting along with others in her class, yet she's
on good terms with Taku’s best friend Yutaka Matsuno (voiced by Toshihiko Seki).
Taku and
Rikako themselves have little to no interaction with each other until their
class trip to Hawaii. While there, Rikako asks Taku if he could lend her a considerable about of money. Taku obliges and the two once again have almost no contact for another year; during
which time Rikako never returns the money.
Out of the
blue, Taku gets a call from one of Rikako’s friends who says Rikako is heading
to Tokyo and it was Taku who gave her the money for plane tickets.
Quickly rushing to the airport, Taku is unable to stop Rikako from going,
but upon seeing her reservations about going alone he decides to
join her.
