Welcome to Storyflix.
In this video, we will explain The End of the Tiny World.
This movie tells the story of defence, love and revenge that have been buried
for more than ten years.
When their loved ones are lost, their only goal is revenge.
Will revenge bring good to them? Let's find out in The End of the Tiny World.
The End of The Tiny World begins by showing an elementary school student named Yocchi who has
just transferred to her new school.
Yocchi is a very shy and quiet girl.
When the teacher asked
her to introduce herself in front of her friends,
her voice was completely inaudible because she said in a whisper.
Because of that, the teacher asked Yocchi to introduce herself in a louder voice.
But because of the teacher's pushy attitude, Yocchi actually felt intimidated.
Seeing a frightened Yocchi,
one of the students who were there then stood up and threw a can of soda at her.
The boy then told her to open the drink.
Yocchi spontaneously obeyed the boy's words,
and in an instant, the soda gushed out and hit the teacher.
All the students laughed at that.
Because her actions were considered to have bullied the teacher, the boy, known as Makoto,
was then summoned to the teacher's office to take responsibility for his actions.
Makoto is actually quite a smart student but often commits mischief at school which causes
him to be often scolded by his teachers.
The teacher then orders Makoto to hand over all the objects he often uses for fun and punishes him.
Meanwhile on the school grounds, Yocchi is seen waiting for Makoto with a boy named Kida,
who is also Makoto's best friend.
Yocchi wanted to thank Makoto and intended to befriend him.
Kida then tells Yocchi that he and Makoto have been friends
since they were little because they no longer have parents and live in the same orphanage.
Yocchi then reveals to Kida that she is an orphan and moved to their school for some reason.
Since then, Yocchi has developed a close friendship with Makoto and Kida.
Long story short, the three friends have now become students in high school.
After being close friends with Makoto and Kida,
Yocchi slowly began to change to become more cheerful and friendly.
Yocchi is also seen laughing more often
because Makoto and Kida always entertain her with their witty behaviour.
When she came home from school,
Yocchi told her best friends about the reason for being quiet and aloof,
which turned out to be because she often experienced bullying at school.
Hearing this, Makoto then invites Yocchi to meet the students who used to bully her.
When Makoto finally met them,
the then fought with them and told the students to apologize to Yocchi
for the abuse they had done to her.
Because the students refused to apologize to Yocchi,
Makoto then pranked them with his prank tools, which made them run away in fear.
Makoto then advises Yocchi to be bolder
and vent her anger on her bullies.
Several years later, Makoto,
Kida, and Yocchi are now high school students and often spend time together
because they are also in the same school.
One day, Yocchi told her two friends that he wanted to see fireworks in winter.
Hearing this, Makoto promised to set off stunning fireworks in winter for Yocchi.
While sitting together, Kida expressed his desire to continue to be together with Yocchi and Makoto
until they grow up. Hearing Kida's words, Yocchi immediately felt touched and happy
because she also hoped to continue to be together with Makoto and Kida forever.
She hoped that her two friends would never forget her and leave her no matter what.
When she came home from school, Yocchi found a dog lying on the street,
lifeless after being hit by a passing vehicle. Yocchi felt very sad and sorry for the dog
because no one cared about him and left the dog lying on the street just like that.
Long story short, the three friends have grown up and are still together. On a rainy day, Yocchi and
Kida seemed to be walking together. Kida, who had always loved Yocchi, then confessed his feelings
to her. Hearing Kida's confession, Yocchi was silent for a while before finally revealing
that she also likes Kida. But Kida was a little late because it turned out that Makoto had already
expressed his love for Yocchi and Yocchi had accepted Makoto. Although a little disappointed,
Kida seemed relieved because he had expressed his feelings and wished happiness for her two friends.
After graduating from school, Kida and Makoto then work in a car repair shop owned by Mr. Miyazawa,
both of whom are hard workers and always diligent in their work. One night, Makoto tells Kida that
he will surprise Yocchi, which he calls an 'operational proposal'. Makoto asks his friend
to put on a Santa Claus costume and set off fireworks, while he will propose to Yocchi
that very night. Kida happily complies with his friend's wishes and puts on a Santa Claus
costume while Makoto prepares fireworks at the planned venue. But because Yocchi didn't come
after he waited for a long time, Makoto took the initiative to pick up the girl he loved.
While Kida was waiting there alone, he finally decided to find his two friends' whereabouts. Not
long after that, how shocked he was when he found out that Yocchi had been lying on the street in a
lifeless state, while Makoto looked very shocked, lamenting Yocchi's death while holding the ring
he planned to use to propose to Yocchi. Makoto also loses hope and enthusiasm for life after
the death of Yocchi and the only woman he loves. A few months after the incident that killed Yocchi,
a red luxury car was seen entering the auto repair shop where Makoto and Kida worked, Miyazawa
Automotive. The driver and owner of the luxury car is a beautiful woman named Lisa. Lisa then asked
the mechanics to fix her shattered car lampshade. Kida rushed off to call his boss, Mr. Miyazawa,
while Makoto was seen inspecting the damage to the bumper and headlight shade of Lisa's car.
Upon closer inspection, Makoto confirmed that the damage was not something that had just occurred.
Lisa finally admitted that she hit a dog some time ago and the dog died on the spot. She decided
to immediately run away from the scene because she didn't want anything to do with the police,
which could trigger her father's anger. Initially Mr. Miyazawa was reluctant to fix Lisa's car,
but the woman said that she would pay whatever it cost so they could fix her car as before.
After determining the agreed cost of repairing the car, Lisa finally left the car repair shop.
But before she left, Makoto approached her and invited her to dinner. Judging that Makoto is
just a mechanic and not on her level, Lisa flatly refuses Makoto's invitation. Even so,
Makoto didn't give up and tried to seduce Lisa with a few magic tricks to impress her.
Lisa seemed to be smiling and impressed by the romantic magic tricks Makoto did for her.
However, she still refused Makoto's invitation and immediately left him.
After that, Makoto reveals to Kida that he is in love with Lisa and intends to pursue her,
even though it sounds impossible because Lisa is a rich woman, while Makoto is just a poor young man.
A week later, Makoto decides to resign and go somewhere. Makoto also did not inform Kida of
his departure and never contacted his best friend again. Long story short, two years after Makoto's
departure, Kida was still working at the auto repair shop, until one day, Mr. Miyazawa said
that the auto repair shop would be evicted due to a road construction project initiated by the local
government. Therefore, Mr. Miyazawa was forced to lay off all his employees, including Kida. Mr.
Miyazawa then gave Kida an address and said that Kida might find Makoto by visiting the address.
Wanting to find his best friend, Kida went to the address given by his boss, which turned out to be
owned by a crime boss named Mr. Kawabata. The man said that the place used the name
of an import-export service company as a cover to disguise their usual illegal activities. However,
the company has a very good reputation for finding people. Kida then showed Makoto's
photo to Mr. Kawabata. Because Mr. Kawabata charges a hefty fee for information about Makoto,
Kida makes a deal with Mr. Kawabata and finally he is recruited to become negotiators who work
for the criminal organization. Kida finally found the location of Makoto's whereabouts,
where Makoto seemed surprised that Kida managed to find him. Makoto then apologizes to his best
friend for walking away and never contacting him after that. Makoto then told Kida that the reason
for resigning from his job at Mr. Miyazawa and leaving Kida was because he had to find
and raise forty-five million yen to buy a wine company from the owner, a dying old man. Makoto
works hard to raise that much money just to get close to Lisa and convince her that he has a lot
of money and is willing to marry her. Kida didn't think that Makoto was desperate to do all that
just to get Lisa's love. Makoto then asks Kida to give him a new identity through his connections
with gangsters to approach Lisa and marry her. Seeing that Makoto really wanted to marry Lisa,
Kida couldn't refuse and decided to help his best friend. Long story short, Makoto finally
managed to collect forty-five million yen and Kida managed to get a new identity for Makoto.
After that, Makoto went to the dying old man who owned the wine company in his bed
and expressed his desire to buy the company, to which the old man agreed. Makoto eventually
becomes a wine company owner and is respected by many for his success. Kida returned to see Makoto
and told him that Mr. Miyazawa has been evicted because of a road construction project initiated
by the local government. Kida then raised his suspicions about the eviction, in which
he assumed that the road construction project was related to the incident that killed Yocchi.
Makoto seemed to be thinking the same thing as Kida, but didn't say it. Makoto then told Kida
that Lisa was a model by profession and Lisa's father, Mr. Ando, ??is a government official.
Not long after that, Makoto attended an event initiated by Lisa and her father.
When Makoto was about to approach Lisa, he was surprised by the appearance of a man who turned
out to be Lisa's fianc . Makoto also asks Kida for help to get rid of Lisa's fianc . Without
thinking, Kida immediately obeyed Makoto's words, where he then went to the man in his apartment
and threatened him to leave Lisa. Because Kida threatens to kill him, the man decides to leave
Lisa and get out of her life. In the end, Makoto got what he wanted and had a romantic relationship
with Lisa until they decided to make their relationship official to the level of marriage.
One day, Makoto tells Kida about his plan to propose to Lisa on Christmas Eve.
Makoto then handed a letter to Kida and asked him to hand it over to Mr. Kawabata.
He also intends to live broadcast the moment when he proposed to Lisa and asked Kida to
hijack the television channel so that everyone could see it live. When Christmas Eve arrived,
Kida met Makoto and handed Makoto something that he had previously asked Mr. Kawabata. After that,
Kida waited somewhere while watching the live broadcast. People started cheering happily after
seeing Lisa's figure which was broadcast live by Makoto who was secretly recording Lisa with
a hidden camera. Apparently, Makoto never intended to propose to Lisa. He intends to
uncover the crimes that have been committed by Lisa. Makoto said that the beginning of their
meeting was ten years ago when Lisa visited the car repair shop where Makoto works as a mechanic.
Lisa says that she doesn't remember. Makoto then performs a magic trick that he once showed Lisa
during their first meeting at the car repair shop. However, unlike ten years ago, this time
Makoto put a ring he planned to give Yocchi when he was about to propose to her a few years ago.
Makoto then revealed that he found a broken car headlight at the scene of Yocchi's accident
and picked it up. When Lisa went to the auto repair shop to fix her car's headlight shade,
Makoto immediately found out that the broken glass matched Lisa's broken headlight shade.
Makoto said that Lisa didn't actually hit a dog, but instead hit Yocchi to death.
For two months after Yocchi's death, Makoto continued to wait for information from the
police regarding the progress of the accident that killed Yocchi. But he did not get any information
because Lisa's father is a government official and he had silenced the police and media crew
so that the crime committed by his daughter would not be known. Lisa's father even erased all traces
of Yocchi's existence. He initiated a road construction project that evicted Mr. Miyazawa
where Kida and Makoto work because Lisa came to the repair shop to fix her car. All of these
things were done by Lisa's father only to protect him and her daughter's reputation in public.
Hearing this, Lisa finally admitted that she had hit Yocchi. But she did not know that her
confession was known to everyone because Kida had hijacked the television broadcast that broadcasted
her confession. Elsewhere, Lisa's father is informed of Lisa's confession and orders his men
to stop the live broadcast. After hearing Lisa's confession, Makoto immediately got angry and took
out a detonator to detonate the bomb installed in the room. Apparently, the items that Makoto asked
Mr. Kawabata is an explosive, where he intends to kill Lisa and himself by detonating the bomb
in the hotel room they are currently in. Knowing this, Kida immediately ran to Makoto and Lisa's
hotel. But as it turned out, Makoto had lied to Kida and changed the location of his hotel.
Just as Kida entered the hotel room, suddenly there was a big explosion in one of the hotel
rooms in the building next door, which killed both Makoto and Lisa. After his two best friends died,
Kida seemed very frustrated and had no enthusiasm for life because he had lost the two most precious
people in his life. Since they were children, Kida often visited the road that he has often
walked with Makoto and Yocchi until they were separated by death. A road where they once
found a dog lying lifeless, abandoned. A path where Kida once expressed his love for Yocchi.
A street where Kida and Makoto find Yocchi lying dead on a cold Christmas Eve. A path where he saw
the figures of Yocchi and Makoto looking happy and hand in hand towards their eternal life.
Through this film, we are shown the true friendship between Kida, Makoto and Yocchi,
which has existed since they were in elementary school until they became adults.
All three have the same background, which is both an orphan who has no family.
Because of that, they are close friends, love and protect each other, and are willing to do
anything for their friends. That is a true friendship that is sincere and lasting.
