Are You Pleased When an Old Friend Says You Haven’t Changed At All?

Overview

Early one morning, Onizuka Taro impulsively buys a Himalayan cat on an auction site, influenced by his children's suggestion. Despite struggling with just one cat, he feels a shift in himself for taking on a second. As the trainees rehearse the company song for tomorrow’s singing lesson, Onizuka’s mind is consumed with thoughts of the Himalayan he'll meet at lunch. At the café, he meets Kamoshita, a pet dealer, to pick up the cat. However, instead of a Himalayan, he's handed a large, unrecognizable mixed-breed cat. When he complains, Kamoshita dismisses it, saying animals naturally change.
