Mugiko-san to

My Little Sweet Pea (麦子さんと / Mugiko-san to) is a Japanese comedy, drama film directed by Keisuke Yoshida and starring Horikita Maki.

The story is about parent-child love, in which an otaku girl who works at an anime shop aims to become a voice actor, but her mother died who once abandoned her and her brother.

Mugiko and her elder brother, Norio, have been living together in the apartment for a rent of 90,000 yen per month for three years since her father died.

However, Saiko was also her mother, making breakfast for Mugiko, cleaning the love hotel rooms in the morning to earn money, and trying to understand her daughter's hobby of anime.

Norio tells Mugiko in front of Saiko's body at the hospital that she had already been suffering from terminal liver cancer when she came to their apartment.

Also, a large number of men that knew Saiko from the past and have heard about Mugiko's arrival come to the inn, and what would have been a solitary dinner turns into a party.

Feeling awkward, Mugiko leaves Michiru's apartment, taking Saiko's remains, and stays at Yawatahama inn.

On the morning of the fourth day, Mugiko changes into her mourning clothes, takes Imoto's taxi, gives Michiru the burial permit, and completes the interment.

Declining Imoto's kind offer to give her a ride in a taxi, Mugiko, refreshed, walks back to Goto Station.
