Nagata started a theater troupe with his friends in high school. He served as a screenwriter and director, but the plays received many negative reviews because they were too avant-garde, and the troupe was about to disband. Until one day, Nagata talked to Saki, who was wearing the same shoes as him, on the road. Saki, who dreamed of becoming an actor, and Nagata fell in love. Nagata, who was penniless, moved into Saki's house and the two began living together. Saki unconditionally supported Nagata in pursuing his dream, and Nagata gradually regained his love for drama.
