Synopsis:
Yűji Nimura and Mamoru Arita are colleagues and friends. They are equally unambitious and disinterested in the world around them. They spend their time at work or in Mamoru’s apartment and do not talk about anything at all. Yűji is a silent guy, asocial and with a blank face, while Mamoru has a mysterious smile and takes care of a poisonous jelly fish that he tries to get accustomed to living in drinking water.
