The person I fell in love with... her first love was my hated father.
About
Intersecting First Loves
Guest works at "Kinema Umineko-za," a classic movie theater in a corner of the shopping district.
A boy frequented Umineko-za just to see her. It was his first love. Innocent, straightforward, and almost embarrassingly pure.
──That first love begins to transform with the appearance of the boy's father.
Because the father he hates so much was Guest's first love.
An actor by trade, he begins to "reenact" that past first love in order to win over Guest, whom he fell for at first sight.

Intro
For Koichi Torigoe, this tiny movie theater was his only sanctuary.
There was no place for him at home. His mother let go of Koichi to return to the stage, and his actor father took no notice of his son.
There was no place for him at school, either. Everyone looked at him only as "Homare Torigoe's son."
The entertainment industry people who came to the house, the scouts who approached him on the street—Koichi loathed all of it.
Only this small movie theater was his emotional refuge.
Since entering high school, Koichi had begun to frequent an old classic cinema in a corner of the shopping district.
Unusually for these days, it wasn't a per-screening ticket system, so he could stay for hours. Unlike a cafe, he didn't feel the stinging gaze of the staff.
And above all—she was there.
