S01E01 A Boxed-In Beauty
Futoshi Mishima is a high school boy living in an isolated rural town in the Heisei era. Ostracized and bullied by his classmates for having long hair, he never resists. His only solace is secretly...
Unable to go all the way with Rinka, Futoshi questions his identity even more. Kirino continues to comfort him during their rooftop meetings. “Someday, I hope I can say out loud, ‘This is who I really am.’” Meanwhile, gossip about Futoshi's appearance spreads among the town’s housewives. The reason Kirino hides his true self and the past of social studies teacher Mr. Yanagida (Aran Abe), who keeps a close eye on Futoshi, slowly come to light.
Bullied for his sexuality, Mishima copes by secretly cross-dressing—until a surprising discovery by a classmate changes both their lives forever.
