Lullabys of Birdland for Mother’s Day, you want? Le Story feels dramatic for Mom’s day. Ritsuko feels derpy. Kaoru feels hopeless. Then he plays with one of Sentaro’s sisters. “I can’t stay mad at you.” … “The coincidences keep on coming.” Those lines. Ri’ko feels sad whenever Kaoru is not in the practice area. It’s obvious. Kaoru got a letter from his former helper who met his mom around Tokyo. The letter was given to him by his dad… while Sentaro hides inside his room for obvious reasons. Now, Kaoru goes to Tokyo (and Sentaro tagged along). Sentaro then gives him food from Ri’ko while in the ride. As they depart from the train, they are welcomed to Tokyo and saw busy people. The normal Tokyo people, yes? So, the address points to a place named Aoi Choucho (Blue Butterfly). Kaoru then changes his mind. It’s her mom’s day-off. Then they go to Jun’s place and wha’ddya know? Kampai! Not to mention that there are letters coming from Yurika at the guy’s doorsteps. Also, they’re drunk! The next day, it’s raining. There we go, they met each other. This happened. They’re having fun. Now, the musical reference - Chris Connor’s Lullaby of Birdland. …and tears. Going back to Kyushu! I watched this show on Mother’s Day, and it feels relieving to me. Rating: ++
