Shark Boy Meets Girl

[Machine Translation] A new "Shark x Youth" movie by "Hatsukoi Geisha" director Natsume! A touching romance about the joys and losses of love for a lonely man led by a shark! Makoto, a 40-year-old man who lives with his mother in their bookstore, is a lonely virgin who helps out at the bookstore and keeps himself locked up in his room. His only emotional support is a shark figure given to him by his mother, and his room is filled with various monster figures. One day, a female customer at a bookstore is browsing through a shark catalog, and he begins to take an interest in her. However, not knowing how to interact with women, Makoto asks Kasumi, a neighborhood prostitute with whom he has a close family relationship, for advice. While he is about to take action based on Kasumi's advice, his mother, who had gone shopping with him, is hit by a car on the way home and dies suddenly. Brokenhearted and desperate by the sudden tragedy, Makoto is about to throw away his collection of figurines when a shark figure suddenly materializes and appears in front of him, telling him something. Guided by the giant shark that only he can see, Makoto talks to Mina, a female customer he meets at a bookstore, and gradually deepens their relationship through stories about sharks, but then one day she suddenly disappears... The special features include a trailer and a short film (tentative).
