1945, Japan. Gen Nakaoka is a spirited six-year-old boy who lives with his poor yet loving family in wartime Hiroshima. As the second World War rages on, Gen's father Daikichi stands among the few outspoken who are opposed to the emperor and stand for the innocent civilians bearing the brunt of the war. However, in a society with nothing but feverous support for their nation, Gen and his family are ostracized as traitors. Unbeknownst to them, a terrible fate awaits the people of Hiroshima... One quiet morning, the US forces drop an atomic bomb on Hiroshima. In an instant, the city is completely destroyed, leaving thousands dead and many more exposed to radiation. Though Gen manages to survive the blast, he finds his life irreversibly changed. Regrouping with what's left of his family, Gen must now grapple with starvation, destitution, and an unsympathetic public who see survivors as little more than disease-ridden beggars. Based on author Keiji Nakazawa's real-life experiences, Hadashi no Gen follows Gen and his fellow survivors in their struggle to survive in post-war Hiroshima. Gen resolves to soldier on with unwavering determination, while never forgiving those who caused the atrocity, never forgetting the pain of the bomb, and never letting his spirit be broken by the tragedy.

It is rumored that Touji Seryou, one of the most popular boys at school, will go out with anyone who asks him out on a Monday morning... But on this particular Monday morning, the first person he meets at the school gate is no other than Yuzuru Shino, Seryou's sempai at the archery club... On a whim, and well-aware of Seryou's reputation, Shino asks Seryou to go out with him... Thinking that it will be treated as a joke, (they're both guys after all) imagine Shino's surprise when Seryou takes him up on the offer! There is a catch, though... While Seryou will go out with the first person who asks him out on a Monday morning, the other side of the coin is that by the end of the week, he will break up with that person... In essence, Seryou is a lover with a one-week expiration date... but will Shino prove to be the exception to that rule? (Source: Renta!)
