Before the Sunset

9/24/2023

Kazunori built his life on deadlines, commitments, and business. So much business in fact, he earned the title “God of Management.” Now that he’s alone, in his eighties, he regrets not having stopped to smell the flowers, so to speak. His only happiness now is his volunteer nurse/companion, a twenty year old girl named Asuka. One day, out for a “walk,” they stop at a vantage point and look out at the vast and beautiful scenery. Asuka asks Kazunori about his life, and he reveals his regrets. She asks him to make a wish and she prays to God that it be granted. Suddenly, Kazunori “wakes up” as a twenty-year old young man on a college campus. Now he has his whole life ahead of him. He decides to forge ahead completely differently than he did before, not knowing whether or not destiny exists
