Synopsis
Minato's apartment appears akin to a deserted island due to its secluded nature and modest proportions. Despite being of elementary age, Minato shoulders the burden of looking after his younger sister, Nagisa, who yearns for their mother's infrequent homecomings. On a sudden visit, their mother treats them to the amusement park and hands Minato some cash before leaving them high up on the Ferris wheel. While ascending, a bolt of lightning strikes their carriage, leaving Minato unconscious. Upon awakening, he's taken aback by a turn of events that challenges his notions of calamity.
