ABOUT US
We do not define a clear theme or precept for our stories.
This is because the message or theme can change endlessly, depending on the recipient and their
condition.
It is very natural.
On the other hand, if we create one correct answer, it may make other various interpretations incorrect.
The world is full of coincidences and nonsense. At the same time, it is very multifaceted, complex, and fascinating.
It is that kind of story that we would like to make.
And such stories often seem so simple.
