Super Cub (2021)

In the quiet corners of Yamanashi, high school student Koguma navigates a life steeped in solitude. Her world, devoid of parents, friends or hobbies, is a monochromatic canvas of mundane routine. Left in the wake of her father's death and her mother's inexplicable abandonment, Koguma's existence seems as empty as the echoing halls of her solitary world. However, a spark of change ignites when Koguma dreams of owning a scooter, a symbol of freedom and mobility that she yearns for. On her journey to school, she stumbles upon a shop selling her dream ride. Yet, the price tag of a new scooter threatens to shatter her newfound hope. In a fortunate twist, the empathetic shop owner offers her a used Honda Super Cub for a mere 10,000 yen – a deal that propels her life onto a new trajectory. With her Super Cub, Koguma ventures onto roads less traveled, experiencing the thrill of motorcycle riding for the first time. The once mundane facets of life – running out of gas, confronting detours – suddenly become sources of small adventures that color her once grey world. Her newfound passion piques the interest of her classmate Reiko, a fellow motorcycle enthusiast, setting the stage for an unexpected friendship and a rejuvenated everyday life. Super Cub paints a vivid tale of a lonesome girl's world opening up, as she navigates the winding roads of adolescence on her trusty motorcycle. Through unforeseen friendships and thrilling escapades, Koguma discovers that life, much like the open road, can be filled with unexpected beauty and joy. The series offers a heartening exploration of personal growth, resilience, and the transformative power of simple pleasures.
