Tucked away in a shopping street in Higashi-Nakano sits "Café Odokei".
Inside this Showa-retro coffee shop, customers burdened with worries wander in by chance today as well.
Encouraged by the warm hospitality of Hatsuko, the cheerful and kind elderly owner, and her quiet grandson, Hayate, visitors find the courage to share their troubles. As they open their hearts, the café’s grandfather clock rings out a mysterious chime, and time inside the shop rewinds to the Showa era.
Cream soda, chicken-rice omelets, milkshakes... delicious retro café classics and a past reconnected by the grandfather clock give weary patrons the strength to look forward once more.
Five warm, comforting, and deeply nostalgic stories.
