Come Back, Start Again

Awatama, a hip-hop dancer, has stood firmly by Mitsora's side ever since the two first met at dance school back in middle school, where Mitsora was chasing his dream of becoming an idol. From that moment on, Awatama has cheered him on through every setback, devoting himself wholeheartedly to supporting his friend's ambitions. Yet the road has been far from kind—audition after audition ends in rejection, and the two endure a long, painful stretch of unfulfilled hopes. Then, without any warning, everything changes. Out of nowhere, Mitsora announces that his debut has finally been decided. But there is a shocking catch: the condition attached to his debut is that he must appear in a gay adult video. Desperate to stop him before it is too late, Awatama corners Mitsora and presses him with a provocative question: "Then does that mean you'd do it with me, too?" The words, thrown out in a frantic attempt at deterrence, instead push the two of them across a line neither can uncross—throwing their friendship, their futures, and their feelings into a completely new and dangerous light.
