Old-Fashioned Cupcake

A visit to a pancake shop leads to an unexpected May-December romance that breathes life into the monotonous routine of an older salaryman.

The daily grind both soothes and troubles older salaryman Nozue, until an unexpected visit to a pancake shop with his blunt younger coworker shakes things up!

At 39 years old, Nozue lives a routine, if not melancholic, life of sleep and work. Togawa, his younger subordinate, finds this troubling and takes it upon himself to shake up Nozue's routine. During a lunch outing, the two go to a pancake shop full of exuberant young ladies to "do what girls do," and it's just the thing to breathe life into Nozue. The two men start an unlikely friendship-and perhaps something a little sweeter!
