■Fuma Kikuchi comment
Thank you very much for visiting! It seems that we have received a lot of feedback on X, and we are grateful for that. I hope that you will not only be interested in the future of Aoi and Kurosawa’s love story, but also Ichikawa, Sakamoto, Oshima, and Ozu.
Also, at the end of the first episode, timelesz’s new song “Because” is beautifully placed in the video, so I would be happy if you could watch “Because” as well as see how everyone’s hearts are moving.
And I hope you’ll continue to look forward to it, as it will continue to carefully depict the small feelings that only adults have.
