They enjoy eating together, until he notices his photo on the altar. A silhouette appears on the shoji screen door... The man wakes from a nap, and Akiko is cooking dinner. She made his favorites; they talk, but he can't shake his déjà vu. He sees his photo on the altar, and asks Akiko about it, but before she can answer, a bull's silhouette appears on the shoji screen door... The man awakes from his nap, certain he is repeating the same day. At dinner, he asks Akiko how many times he's repeated the same day, and if he's died. Akiko confirms his death, but he hasn't been repeating the same day; he has been home for three days. He realizes whose shadow he has been seeing, and that he must go. He thanks her for having him home again this year, and they bid each other goodbye. An elderly Akiko informs her grown daughter that her father had just left for the year, but only she could see him. The daughter muses about whether she will get to see him next year. (Source: Wikipedia)
