March 11 2011 Japan was hit by the largest<br />
earthquake in its recorded history. The ensuing<br />
tsunami engulfed over 90 cities killing over<br />
18,000 people.<br />
Millions of tons of debris was pulled into the<br />
Pacific and left floating out to sea. One<br />
year later Beachcombers in North America<br />
started finding Japanese items washed<br />
ashore and were consumed with finding the<br />
owners. They packed their bags and traveled<br />
to Japan in hopes to reunite people<br />
with some small piece of their past.<br />
The unlikeliest of friendships were forged in<br />
the wake of a massive natural disaster.<br />

Jun Naruse is a girl who carries the guilt of breaking up her family<br />
with the words she carelessly uttered when she was young…<br />
Suddenly, a mysterious “Egg Fairy” appears in front of Jun and<br />
casts a curse on her so that she can never hurt anybody with<br />
her words. Jun’s ability to speak is sealed away: every time<br />
she tries, she feels a pain in her stomach. Traumatized by this<br />
experience, Jun hides her feelings deep inside of her heart,<br />
turning to e-mail messages on her mobile phone as her sole<br />
means of communication<br />
Jun is now a second year high school student. One day, her<br />
homeroom teacher appoints Jun and three other students as<br />
members of the Regional Friendship Exchange Executive<br />
Committee. As it turns out, the appointed group is a rather unexpected mix of students. Other than Jun, the members of the Committee are<br />
Takumi Sakagami, the burn-out who never speaks his true intentions; Daiki Tasaki, the former baseball team ace who failed his run at the<br />
Championships due to an injury; and Natsuki Nito, the cheerleader and honor student who has some concerns about her love life. They all<br />
suffer from emotional trauma just like Jun.<br />
