At the absolute lowest point of his life, 26-year-old Takemichi Hanagaki learns that his only girlfriend from middle school, Hinata Tachibana, has been murdered by the Tokyo Manji Gang. A sudden accident sends him hurtling not to his death, but twelve years into the past, back to his delinquent schoolboy days. He finds Hinata's younger brother, Naoto, and warns him of the future before being pulled back to the present. There, he is saved by the now-adult Detective Naoto, who reveals that Takemichi's warning saved him but not his sister.
