  Underrated movie if I've ever seen one not perfect in many respects but nonetheless worth watching! Sure some things could have been better explained but then maybe it would have taken some of the mystery away from it.
  
  Watch it, even if it's just a certain bridge scene. Overall excellent with solid acting & very touching!
  
  The music is perfect for it too especially the ending theme by Makihara Noriyuki (Firefly ~ Boku wa Ikite iku)!

  After watching this movie I was genuinely touched by the storyline.
  
  Asato moves to a small run-down town to be closer to his mother, who is in a nearby jail. There he meets Takeo, a troubled guy with a dark past who gets in fights alot. Takeo discovers Asato's powers to be able to transfer pain/scars/wounds from other people unto himself. This is soon the beginning of their friendship as Asato is able to rely on his first friend. Little by little, they start making improvments in their lives.
  
  Takeo past unravels as he tries to deal with the pain. What is it that Takeo can't let go of from his past? And why is Asato's mother in jail?
  
  With power Asato is able to transfer pain from the people around him, but how much pain can he inflict himself?
  
  This focuses mainly on the emotional feelings and the importance of life. This is not a movie for those expecting fast-paced action. Like I said, this is based on feelings and the meaning of friendship. read more

  Both explore the consequences and morality of changing the natural order of pain, life, and death.
