Synopsis

In a sleepy, normal town a few hours outside of Tokyo, Onaga lives a normal happy life. Her home life is normal. Her school life is normal. Even her part-time job at the pork bowl joint in the mall is pretty standard. But there is a source of light in her life and they happen to be next door. Will Kawashibara help her life have some meaning? Or will their unique dance end in tragedy?

Admiring their ability to be free with themselves, while the MC lives in constant suppression of herself.

If only this were more than 40 pages....the concept is merely introduced, not explored to any ...
