Kida and Makoto have been friends since childhood. Later they befriend Yocchi, the new transfer student. Neither of them have parents, so they spend time with each other daily, essentially growing up together. An incident occurs when they are twenty and that tears their world apart. Years later, both boys are employed in the criminal underworld, with Kida as a negotiator and Makoto as a trading company’s CEO. It has now taken them ten years to get revenge on the world that changed their fates, so many years ago.

Reviews
The movie may look as if it was poorly taken, but trust me you won't be disappointed in the end. I kept on asking myself how this is gonna end because you won't know where the story is going. The acting was really good and expressive!
This is a story about three orphan friends who were happy but things got worse due to a particular incident and how they overcome it in the future.
As for me, the ending was satisfying.
Watch it and you won't regret.

This is an amazing movie starring Iwata Takanori and Mackenyu. For me, it's as beautiful in its tragedy as Rurouni Kenshin: The Beginning. I'm not going to talk about the plot because the slow unraveling of Makoto's "master plan" is the whole point of the movie, it's really well paced and it's better to go in unspoiled. What I am going to talk about is my heart, in itty bitty pieces...This movie is also known under the title The End of the Tiny World and said tiny world is that of Iwata Takanori's Kida. Like he said to the girl he loved, Yocchi, "My world is really tiny. It's just me and you and Makoto." (Paraphrasing!) And the movie is about how his tiny world ended and he was left with nothing. It's heartbreaking.
And Iwata Takanori is mesmerizing to watch here. Seeing his Kida turn from a small town mechanic into a self-assured negotiator for the mob, to someone who pulls a gun and fires it without blinking, that's a thing to behold.
A truly unforgettable movie. Small, almost intimate yet unforgettable.
