Nobody talks about this one. Two episodes that exist for one reason: to put money directly into rebuilding a place most of the world forgot about by February. The animation is quiet, almost unbearably gentle, because it's not here to perform grief or manufacture drama. It just watches people in the Noto Peninsula trying to live in the wreckage of January 1st, 2024. You watch it and every yen of your view becomes a brick, becomes a door, becomes someone's home again. That simplicity, that refusal to sensationalize real devastation, is what makes it matter.

On January 1, 2024, an earthquake caused widespread destruction across the Noto Peninsula. This short two-episode slice-of-life ONA centers on that disaster. It was made as a charity project: all of the revenue the animation earns goes to rebuilding the Noto region.
