Synopsis
Quiet observer Yuuya receives future murder clues and must decide whether to help bullied classmate Naoto before October 2.
Yuuya Matsuda has always been a quiet observer, watching from the sidelines as his classmate Naoto Wakatsuki endures relentless bullying at school. Like everyone else, Yuuya fears crossing Akira Kaneshiro—the source of Naoto's torment—whose reputation for violence keeps the entire class in line. One day, strange objects begin appearing on Yuuya's balcony, as if dropped from nowhere. Among them is a weathered newspaper clipping that seems to be from the future, bearing ominous headlines about a murder that will occur by October 2. Yuuya dismisses it as a prank—until a chance encounter with Naoto forces him to reconsider everything he thought he knew. When Yuuya makes a decision that will change both their lives forever, he finds himself drawn into a complex web of secrets and moral dilemmas. As the days count down toward October 2, Yuuya must confront difficult questions about justice, friendship, and what it truly means to stand up for someone else.
Like other students, Yuuya Matsuda is a bystander to the cruel bullying Naoto Wakatsuki suffers at the hands of Akira Kaneshiro and his lackey. Due to foul rumors, everyone fears the erratic Kaneshiro and does not dare to defy him. On Yuuya's balcony, unusual objects always mysteriously appear. This time, he finds a piece of newspaper seemingly from the future. The headlines state that by October 2, a murder will occur; the culprit will turn themselves in and then take their own life while in custody. Yuuya pays no mind to this until, later at night, he encounters Naoto holding a bloodstained baseball bat. Naoto makes a shocking confession: he has killed Kaneshiro. Tired of being a bystander, Yuuya decides to hide Naoto in his room during the course of the investigation. But once they are discovered, the boys have to leave town and take cover elsewhere. If Yuuya wants to save Naoto from his fate, he must change Naoto's mind before October 2. However, Yuuya soon learns that both Naoto and his crime are not as clear-cut as he initially thought.
