College student Sota picks up a cassette tape left behind by musician Aki when he died a year ago. When the tape is played back, Aki takes over Sota's body for just 30 minutes. They share the same body and rush to reunite a band that split up and bring a smile to Aki's girlfriend Kana's face.

everyone talks about Mackenyu, but Takumi Kitamura did an amazing job switching between an introverted and shy character to an extroverted and charismatic one.
i think that this kind of story/dynamic could've been better exploited with a different story, without the romance (Kana was such a boring character and with no personality..), but the band concept was good enough.

the switch at the end during the song was so cool though, and with that, this movie teaches that it's okay to move on and to keep moving forward.

also! don't get fooled by the poster, nor by the banner, this is not a bl!
