Synopsis
Elite-turned-yakuza Shimojou reunites with defeated rival Kuze, offering to keep him as a pet, restarting their twisted relationship.
Shimojou can have whatever he wants but deep down finds life boring. Constantly searching for a thrill, he wanders off the path of an elite and descends into life as a yakuza-like lowlife. Nonetheless, he moves forward as if life were an easy game. Then one day, he comes across a man who’s a filthy piece of garbage. This is the man, who during their youth, was the only person who has given Shimojou the taste of defeat: Kuze. The sudden arrival of this fallen Kuze irritates Shimojou. Trying to ignore his complicated feelings of unhappiness and nostalgia, unexpected words come flying out of Shimojou’s mouth. “If you’re doing this for money, how about letting me keep you as a pet, then?” An intellectual ersatz yakuza lowlife and a homeless parasitic piece of garbage, their life together begins again, but just where will the future lead them?
