As a 2nd grade middle school student, Takao Kasuga found the gym clothes of popular classmate Nanako Saeki (Shiori Akita) in a classroom. He had a huge crush on her at the time. At that time, Takao Kasuga sensed someone's presence near him and, without thought, he took off with Nanako Saeki's gym clothes. The person who saw Takao Kasuga in the classroom was Sawa Nakamura (Tina Tamashiro).

Nakabaka Feb 02 2021 4:54 am The movie is really deep. You need to read the manga to actually understand the meaning of all of it. The cast of this movie is also too damn good. Kentaro, Tina, Marie, Shiori, Shingo, Wakanaz. All the actor & actress are famous with their acting. So, you can enjoy the movie and see how good they play the character.
