Storyline

27-year-old Yazaki Junpei has come back to his hometown of Matsuyama in Ehime Prefecture for the first time in 10 years after working in Tokyo. As the grandson of the bad guy “Red Shirt” who was punished by Bocchan in Natsume Soseki’s novel Bocchan, he has hated this town which continued to be regarded with disdain, since childhood. An old man picks a quarrel with Junpei inside a streetcar as he heads to his parents’ home in Dogo. Could this man be the Bocchan who once acted violently with free abandon in Matsuyama!?
