Toto and Roma are childhood best friends who had their own special club – the ‘Don Glees’. However, the pair were separated when Toto moved away to attend high school. Returning to his hometown for the summer, Toto discovers Roma has inducted a new Don Glees member – a younger boy named Drop. When the group’s newly-purchased drone flies off course, the three boys set off on a lengthy hike to recover it. It’s a trip that will lead to some profound emotional revelations for the trio…

Atsuko Ishizuka’s coming-of-age anime is full of humour and excitement, but come prepared to shed a few tears as well. This is a stunningly animated story about friendship and growing up – and it includes quite a few more references to Ireland than your typical anime.
