In Those Days
Having failed to get into graduate school, with no girlfriend, no money, and no prospects of success with his band, Tsurugi's life has reached rock bottom. One day, after watching the video of Aya Matsuura's song “Momoiro Kataomoi”, he becomes obsessed with the idol singers of “Hello! Project”, and plunges into the idol geek lifestyle. However, as time passes, he and his buddies all find other things just as important as the idols and begin to move on.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a poignant character study of a generation seeking refuge from failure in fan culture. It relies on the stark contrast between the hyper-real, colorful world of idols and the protagonist's drab reality to explore themes of escapism and maturation.
What lingers after the credits is a bittersweet meditation on how temporary obsessions can guide us through difficult times and ultimately toward self-discovery. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Rikiya Imaizumi
