Drama Mameshiba

Jiro's father has passed away, leaving just him and his mother at home. With his father gone, his mother wondered what they would do from now on, especially considering that Jiro is 35 years old with no job. One morning, Jiro finds that his mother has left the house. The only thing at home was a little Shiba dog named Ichiro...

Jiro finds a good luck charm attached to Ichiro's collar. Inside the good luck charm was a small piece of paper that had "stupid married couple" written on it. He recalls that he knew someone from when he was in middle school who had the same good luck charm on their dog.

Jiro goes to his neighbor's house to ask them to take care of Ichiro. However, his mother had already asked them to refuse any help Jiro asks for. The neighbor explains that he must deal with this himself.

Jiro continues following his mother's instructions. His next mission is to go to Fujimi Park. Wanting to end the mission and go back to his room, he goes to Fujimi Park for the first time in his life. He tries to get some information with the help of Ichiro.

Jiro gets arrested for looking suspicious. He finds that everyone in his family refuses to pick him up from jail. Jiro's cellmate is crazy about dogs and tells Jiro all about Mameshiba. Jiro thinks he is strange but feels somewhat comfortable speaking to him.

Curious about his mission at Fujimi park, Jiro looks back over the note his mother left him. Part of the note included some music notes. He meets up with a relative who plays guitar and asks him to play the notes. They find out it is a famous song from an anime series.
