Synopsis
Childhood neighbors Kyoko and Suji quarrel; Suji receives a mysterious videotape teaching relationship skills, transforming his confidence and desires.
Kyoko and Suji are neighbors. They grew up together, shared bitterness and joy together, and are already more than friends to each other. But the boy is not sure of his desires and does not dare to make the first step. One day the friends foolishly quarrel. Kyoko disappeared for a few days, and worried about her absence, Suji received a videotape in the mail. In the video, the unknown man showed Kyoko how to build a strong relationship with a girl. The boy turns the video on as an insecure young man, but turns it off as a man who knows what he wants.
