In its second year, the story focuses on the relationship between Koichiro and Yumi. Every couple is different. There are many things partners don’t fully understand about each other, and many things they cannot share with others—and that’s part of being a couple. Enjoy a glimpse into the relationship between the Isobatake couple.
