A kid and his friend say goodbye on the day his family moves away, and the song doesn't try to make it bigger than it is. The animation moves at the pace of the music, not the other way around. What stays with you is how quietly it handles the weight of childhood separations, no drama, just two people standing in the moment that changes things.

A single-episode animated music video set to "Yumi-chan no Hikkoshi: Sayonara Tsutomu-kun," a song credited to Keiji Kawahashi together with Yoshiko Ootsuka. The short aired on NHK as a segment of its Minna no Uta broadcast.
