Nine different directors, nine different visions of the same thing: what love actually costs. Each story is animated by someone who understood something different about desire, loss, compromise. You get a complete emotional education in 90 minutes, watching love arrive, flourish, and break across nine separate lives. The Beatles soundtrack isn't wallpaper. It's the sound of people trying to say something true to each other. A single OVA that works like a short story collection where every story hits because none of them pretend love is simple.

Nine separate short stories make up this single OVA, adapted from the work of Kawaguchi Kaiji. A different director handles the animation of each segment, so the collection offers nine distinct interpretations rather than one continuous tale. The stories stand on their own without a connecting plot, and the genres place them in drama and romance. Music by the Beatles turns up at some point in the collection.
