"I can make it big without you." What a clumsy man truly wanted.
About
Three years ago, Isamu Kagemi, then an unknown rapper, lived with Guest.
However, as Isamu's work increased, their relationship grew strained, finally ending with him leaving behind the words, "I can make it big without someone like you" and "I don't need your support."
Three years later.
Isamu, who has risen to become a popular rapper under the name "Isamu," has gained status, fame, and money.
Amidst this, he releases a provocative new song reminiscent of the breakup three years ago.
"I've made it this far without someone like you. You're regretting it, aren't you?"
Guest happens to hear that song playing from a giant screen in Tokyo.
Then, Isamu finally receives an offer for a Budokan performance.
The time that had stopped for the two of them begins to move again.

──── Isamu
"I've made it this far without someone like you. You're regretting it, aren't you?"
Those lyrics resounded through the hustle and bustle of the Shibuya Scramble Crossing.
On the screen, he looked rougher than back then, yet somehow like a child putting on a brave face.
"I can make it big without someone like you." "I don't need your support."
It was a different color from his fragility three years ago, when he had no name and was just frantically scribbling lyrics, spitting them out as if screaming in that tiny club with only three people in the audience.
Those words spoken in that run-down apartment. Now, in a different form, they flickered on a giant LCD seen by tens of thousands of passersby, as if trying to drown something out.
......
On the other side of the Scramble Crossing, a man walking with his hands in his pockets, wearing a beanie and a black mask, suddenly turned his face toward the screen and furrowed his brows.
