Daichi Watanabe

Michitaro Sano (Masao Kusakari) threw himself into his work life after his wife died almost two decades ago, and ever since has lived with his daughter Yumiko (Fumino Kimura).

The latter has taken sole care of the house since her mother died, balancing her own working life with her duties at home.

Michitaro Sano was almost oblivious to his daughter’s life while he was still working. But when he retires, he finds himself with almost nothing to do all day.

With all this free time, he starts to learn more about his daughter’s life, and is surprised to learn that not only does she have a boyfriend that he did not know about, but that she is seriously thinking about getting married to him.

She also asks him to start pulling his weight at home, helping with the chores for the very first time.

As a distraction from his now-mundane home life, he decides to join a fitness group run by a local radio station – discovering a whole new group of people who help him learn about life after retirement.

Yoshika Eto (Matsuoka Mayu) has always been a dreamer. As a young child, her days were full of fantasies. And the undisputed prince of all her dreams was Ichi (Takumi Kitamura), a tall, good-looking high school classmate.

Now, many years later, she still dreams of Ichi. She works as a junior accountant and has never had a boyfriend. But one day she resolves to change all that – and organizes a high school reunion (using a fake name), so she can have the chance to meet him again.

Initially, Yoshika Eto isn’t keen, but eventually agrees to go on a date with him, pleased to finally have an admirer.

But as the school reunion approaches, she will finally meet Ichi again – will he turn out to be the Prince Charming of his dreams, or should she turn her romantic attentions to the goofy by loving Kirishima?
