Shin Namura

The 2026 summer special of Fuji TV’s long-running anthology series presents four new strange tales. A veteran detective investigates a crime scene where evidence and bodies seem to vanish. A woman clearing her late mother’s apartment finds the past refusing to be thrown away. A young girl uses a mysterious costume to become an adult man. And a 26-year-old man discovers that his mother has been listed for auction online. Each story leads ordinary people into a surreal, unsettling world.

Whilst working as a full-time employee, Umi Kaneda (Yuriko Yoshitaka) had been repeatedly sneaking into other people’s memorial services, helping herself to the buffet and then leaving. One day, at a venue she had wandered into, Kaneda happened to come across some familiar faces. They were her former teammates from the women’s futsal club at university, where she had once served as captain. Among them were her best friend, Keiko Yamagata (Honami Sato), and even Mizuki Kawagoe (Sayaka Yamaguchi), the club advisor she had always resented. The portrait of the deceased showed Kimi Shirazawa (Hinako Sakurai), a junior she had once played alongside on the pitch. ‘Why wasn’t I invited?’ — Her present life and her glorious university days begin to intertwine. Was that brilliance truly genuine?!

Saki, a high school girl who always skips classes, works part-time as a life adviser.

BUMP short drama

In a situation where location shooting was difficult due to the Corona pandemic, four omnibus horror films that could be shot in the school were planned as the graduation project for the technical area students. Four horrific events with completely different themes and stories take place.

School cleaner Nozomi Haruta was happy. She was supposed to marry her partner, her beloved, her soulmate, the handsome teacher Chitose Yokomizo, but when he secretly marries someone else, he ruins her dreams and breaks her heart. Also, maybe her mind? Seized by desperation, Nozomi photobombs his big wedding photograph by replacing the bride, steals the camera, and makes a run for it! Headlong into the path of a courier carrying Castella cakes! When she wakes up, she sees Chitose hovering over her, only it’s not him, but a being who calls himself Castella (as in the cake). For the next two weeks (the expiration date for the cakes), he will be Nozomi’s cake-based companion and help her get over her despair.
