Misuzu Moritani is an introvert who has always had difficulty interacting with her classmates, quickly becoming flustered whenever someone tries to talk to her. Sometimes, she will use her ability to stop time for three minutes to escape troublesome social situations. One day, as Misuzu watches the suspended environment around her, she observes that her classmate, Haruka Murakami, is somehow able to move despite her temporal influence. From that moment on, Misuzu experiences new wonders as she explores more of the world she has long avoided; no matter where time may take her, Misuzu can count on Haruka to always be at her side.

Viewing Notes
always appreciate when any Japanese media addresses cultural taboo topics. here it’s gay romance between teenage girls. and it’s done in an interesting way using one of girl’s power to freeze time for 3 minutes. as much as I enjoyed this coming-of-age story it’s also symptomatic of many of the issues / feelings experienced by Japanese youth and teens in general. for that reason it’s a bit heartbreaking to watch and I really thought it was headed for a very tragic conclusion as oft occurs in JP teenager stories.
