BOYFRIEND

Takeshi, once a delinquent high school student, is now 29 years old, struggling with an aimless life. Homeless at times, penniless, and lacking direction, he clings to a fragile existence while leeching off his former high school classmate, Yuto. Although they were never close during school, Yuto has taken care of Takeshi for the past three years without complaint, offering him shelter, food, and unwavering support. Their unusual and often tense relationship takes a darker turn when a tragic accident leaves Yuto critically injured, and Takeshi realizes the depth of his feelings.

Desperate and overwhelmed, Takeshi finds himself transported back in time to his high school days, the day he first met Yuto. Armed with the knowledge of the future, Takeshi seizes this second chance, determined to change the course of both their lives. With each step forward, Takeshi must confront his turbulent past, make amends for his mistakes, and navigate the complexities of his growing feelings for Yuto.

Set in modern Japan, BOYFRIEND is a poignant exploration of love, regret, and redemption. The story beautifully weaves together the innocence of first love, the harsh reality of adult life, and the bittersweetness of second chances. With vivid depictions of seasonal changes, weather, and emotional landscapes, BOYFRIEND is a heartfelt narrative of two boys who must face their fears and grow together, no matter what the future holds.
