Synopsis
32-year-old mangaka time-travels 20 years back as a sixth grader to redo his disgraced life.
A 32-year-old aspiring mangaka, Kazuya Mukai, falls off the rooftop of his old elementary school during a drunken stupor. When he wakes up, he finds himself 20 years in the past, and even his body has regressed to that of a sixth grader. Now that Kazuya has a chance to redo his life that had been full of disgrace and humiliation, he hopes to make different choices this time around. As he navigates his second childhood with the mind of an adult, he reconnects with people from his past, including a girl named Anna who once held a special place in his heart. This is a story about second chances, the complexities of time, and how our past choices shape who we become.
