Sumiko 22 2024 / スミコ22 2024 /

Shizuoka Sumiko, who is having a shrimp fry party with friends, suddenly ponders. She realizes that her senses have become incredibly vague without her even noticing. She laments how she has been living her life without feeling a single ounce of what she intensely loves or intensely dislikes, what she finds interesting, or what she wants to talk about. Afterward, Sumiko spends her days conversing with herself. Her cat Okoge, who is at her parents' house, is very important to her. After challenging herself to adapt to an unfamiliar environment, she feels the need to indulge in delicious chocolate. She notices someone wearing white skinny jeans with visible underwear. When she has a hangover, she should be trying to remember what happened yesterday, but she ends up remembering things she doesn't need to recall. She wonders why sneezing always leads to a runny nose. Having graduated from university and quit her job at a company after four months, Sumiko tries to navigate her new life while thinking about what she truly believes in and what she genuinely thinks.
