＜About anthology "ikitakunai"＞
There is always a time where one does not wish to go.
◆ Synopsis
"Go by yourself." "No, I don't want to. Hey, Jousuke, please, go with me."
When I was in high school, I was asked by my childhood friend, Ann, to watch her break up with her lover.
Taking a break from my part time job, I reluctantly followed her only to see...
("Pocket" Kato Shigeaki)
Time flies unknowingly when I wake up in the morning and live life in a daze. Getting home from work, unknown friends are in my house everyday.
One day, only one of them comes to my house countless of times...
("Compilation" Sumino Yoru)
If there's a place where you're being criticised, somehow, the morning will not start right.
You may skip work due to a small thing, your life may be changed by a decision.
Human beings always have this "don't want to go" feeling. These stories cut away the sparkling moments and scoop up the aimlessness in us.
