High school classmates Junta Akiyoshi (Aki) and Harutsugu Fujishiro (Haru) went to different universities but shared a house in a quiet residential area. Now, in their fourth year of university, they are busy job hunting. Haru, who has decided to pursue a career as a photographer, secures a position at a photo studio, while Aki gets a job offer from an interior goods company. During a celebratory "takoyaki pie" party with their friends Yoneyama, Mugita, Azusa, and Yukino, Aki receives an email. It informs him that his workplace will be in Osaka. With only a short time left until graduation, their time living together is nearing its end. A feeling of unease and sadness hangs between them, creating a somewhat distant atmosphere. One day, Haru's sister Rikka visits to announce her engagement. Hearing the story of how she decided to marry, Aki realizes that he has feelings for Haru beyond their friendship. However, Aki resolves not to confess these feelings to him. On the other hand, since learning about Aki's transfer to Osaka, Haru has been visibly preoccupied. Will they have to leave the house they have lived in for four years and end their peaceful and happy cohabitation? What lies ahead for Aki and Haru as they step into their professional lives?

gentle and sweet slice of life (need a third movie)
Overall: the sequel is very similar to its predecessor with the theme of friendship and infusion of cooking/food into the story. I was happy we saw progression but a third movie would really be the cherry on the top. First aired in Japan June 2024. Aired December 4th 2024 on GagaOOLala https://www.gagaoolala.com/en/videos/4988/lets-eat-together-aki-and-haru-more-please-2024 (not available in Japan, Korea, Hong Kong or Macau)What I Liked
- sweet and caring moments
- the cooking/food
- realistic to practice interviewing
- non cliched female characters
- avoided a common plot element at the end (i.e. technology exists)
Room For Improvement
- the voice over recap of the first movie
- thought there had already been some realizations in the last movie, wish we had seen more progress earlier rather than the very end
Overacting made it cringe, besides being boring
This is one of the few japanese productions I could not enjoy at the least.Takahashi constant overacting ruined this movie for me completely. I bet it was not his fault and they director wanted it this way, but it resulted in a cringe fest for me. The story is boring as fuck as well. There is no real progress and there is no real story told. They should have confessed to each other in the beginning because they should already knew from the first movie how they feel. And then maybe we would have a chance to see them grow together and overcome all the obstacles life throws at them. And after they confessed near the end, they do not change, they do not kiss, it's just the same.
So all in all the skip button was my biggest support for this movie. I could not stand to watch some scenes several times. That's the disappointent from Japan in 2024. Why some people like a non-story movie I have no clue, because while the actors look pleasing, the acting was only cringe and there are only about 10minutes of cute in this movie. I guess female viewers will like it more but for me it was just crap and the pretty cinematography can't save it.
