Umi no Hajimari

Synopsis

Tsukioka Natsu (Meguro Ren) was living happy days with his classmate, Nagumo Mizuki, who he began dating by chance. However, one day as they were about to embark on their job hunting activities, she suddenly brought up the idea of breaking up, and the two decided to part ways.
 
Seven years later, Natsu, who had been living a new life, receives a message from a friend from his university days, informing him of Mizuki’s passing. Natsu heads to the funeral, without feeling the reality of the situation sinking in, and there he meets a young girl named Umi, who he is surprised to learn is Mizuki’s child. He is then told by the girl’s mother that he is Umi’s father. Upon learning that Mizuki had silently raised a child born between them without his knowledge, Natsu reflects on the seven years that Mizuki and Umi had spent together.
