Mizushima Toru is a former literary youth who lives a dull office worker life. One day, he receives an invitation and visits Kaede Inno Flower Shop. The owner, Mochizuki Hayato, is curt and blunt, and suddenly offers three flowers, saying, "choose what you like". Toru chooses one, tears off the petals, and for some reason finds himself in a high school classroom! In a panic, he searched around to find out what was going on, and found a diploma with "March 1, 2013" written on it. "Congratulations on your graduation" is written on the blackboard. What a time leap 10 years ago. The woman who appeared there was Toru's first love, Shindo Kasumi. However, the bitter past cannot be changed, and only regret remains. Hayato said "There are 7 tickets left for fate". With 7 more time leaps, will he be able to redo past regrets and fulfill his first love?!

First love, regrets and flowers

Beautiful. Poetic. Sweet. Magical.

There exist a flower shop which you can enter only if invited. Mizushima Toru gets one invitation and curious, goes there. The owner, Mochizuki Hayato asks him to choose one flower out of three and then gives him one petal. Toru suddenly finds himself 10 years earlier on his high school graduation day when he spoke for the last time to his first love Shindo Kasumi. Can the past be changed or will only regrets remain? Using remaining petals, Toru goes back again and again trying to gather courage and confess his love. Will he be successful?

This amazing web drama needs sequel. Like yesterday!

It is beautifully filmed, the actors are perfect: the cool florist, the flustered Toru and the kind Kasumi. Music is rather generic

The main theme is the first love and how it is never realized and how it remains in memory shrouded in regrets and how we can never go back and fix it, and how we need to have more courage and be brave and take risks. The story is perfect from the first to the last minute (35min in all) and the final surprise.

Cinematography is excellent: the 4:3 screen ratio is surprising since nobody uses it anymore. Unless it is destined to be shown on IG or similarly square formated site , it is wrong format for a vertical tiktok drama. Nevertheless, it harks back to the old 20th century television! The colours are bold, joyful in the present and dull yellowish brown for the memories.

They managed to say so much in this short series. Go watch it!
