Description:
A chance meeting with at a late-night ramen stand causes a nameless university student to dismantle the pretentious social barriers he has imposed on himself. His friend Ozu (a reckless class-clown who takes pleasure in torment) seems to wield a psychic grip on trouble, and when not cross-dressing or shooting fireworks at crowds of strangers seeks guidance from a familiar self proclaimed deity. And so a secret society within a Chinese restaurant, a seemingly living love doll (which belongs to the most popular deviant on campus), a gum-massage from a dental hygienist, a health food cult, a mystical tortoise hairbrush and a ramen cart which may or may not use cats in their food all seem normal on 4.5 tatami mats.
