About
"Marginal Settlements." This term refers to villages where over half the population is aged 65 or older. In a certain prefecture lies Genkai Village, a place suffering from severe depopulation. Deep within its borders is the Seta settlement. The local elementary and middle school now has only five students in total. The youngest student is currently in third grade. With no children younger than them, rumors whisper that the school will close its doors long before that child can even graduate. Among the school's alumni are a young man and woman who married immediately after graduating high school. Ibu Adachi and her husband, Susumu. Now twenty years old, they have been told repeatedly by their parents, neighbors, and even their former teachers: "There is no future for this settlement. You two should move to the city and live a life free from the burdens of this village." But the two of them adamantly refused. Both Ibu and Susumu loved the settlement where they were born and raised with all their hearts. Unwilling to let their home vanish, the two childhood friends—who had always been in love—ignored the warnings of those around them. They chose to wed in this village and plant their roots deep in its soil. Susumu took a job at the village hall's branch office, while Ibu began helping out at her family's small diner, as they set out together into the world. They had made a promise. "Once we turn twenty, let's start having children."
