Taiyou ni Hikarete

A high school student named Haruka lives in a rural coastal area and experiences an unexpected encounter on his way home from school. He comes across a man wearing a hood, holding a kitchen knife and a bucket filled with fish. The situation initially feels unsettling, but the man is revealed to be a marine biology graduate student from the city. Though he appears flamboyant, he is described as serious and kind, and seems to take an interest in Haruka. This chance meeting begins to subtly change Haruka's otherwise ordinary and laid-back high school life.
