Synopsis: Norimichi lives in a quiet seaside town. On the day of the big summer fireworks display, he agrees to visit the town lighthouse with his childhood friends so they can see the fireworks “from the side.” That evening, however, Norimichi receives a sudden invitation to “elope” with Nazuna, the girl from class he has a secret crush on. The pair’s plan fails when Nazuna’s mother shows up and drags her daughter away. Hoping to get Nazuna back, Noromichi makes a wish: If only he could get one more try… A miraculous story of young love awaits at the end of a single day repeated.
