One in a Hundred Thousand
Directed by Koichiro Miki
Produced by Media Pulpo, Kazumo
A tender high school romance that pivots from wish-fulfillment to tragedy, exploring love and mortality through the lens of a terminal diagnosis.
Rino Sakuragi (Yuna Taira) is a high school student. She is good friends with Ren Kiritani (Alan Shirahama) who attends the same high school. They have been close since their middle school days. Rino holds special feelings for Ren Kiritani, but she is unable to tell him how she feels because he is popular. One day, Ren confesses to Rino that he likes her. They begin to date and enjoy their time together, but Rino is diagnosed with ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis).
