A desperate cartoonist finds himself at the twilight boundary, neither urban nor rural... In the middle reaches of the Tama River and along the Musashino and Nambu lines, there is neither the nostalgia of the countryside nor the charm of the old town; only a bleak landscape left behind by time unfolds. Just gazing at the scenery on the opposite bank of the Tama River in the early morning fills one with loneliness.
