Revival Blue

In 2009, fourteen-year-old Minato, preparing for high school entrance exams, meets Naoki Okisaka, a guest at the small inn run by Minato's mother. Naoki, originally from Minato’s town but now living in Tokyo, captures Minato’s interest, especially as Minato dreams of leaving his hometown. He spends the summer with his friend Akiyoshi, involving Naoki in their adventures. As summer ends, Naoki returns to Tokyo and life resumes for everyone. However, the memories of that summer remain with Minato and Akiyoshi, even as they grow into adulthood.
