About

You can stream Tamako Love Story (2014) on HiDive with a subscription.

Devoted to her family’s rice-cake–making business and the high school baton club, Tamako is a little slow when it comes to love. She’s oblivious to her childhood friend Mochizo’s affections, even though all their friends know. With graduation closing in and Mochizo leaving for Tokyo, will Tamako realise her feelings and tell him in time?

Warm, nostalgic colors and the soft hum of a quiet neighborhood capture the gentle ache of a first crush. This slice-of-life tale trades grand melodrama for the sweet, clumsy tension of a boy waiting for his best friend to finally notice him.
