HS1C08: SAKURA

'Synopsis: Haruka Nanase, Makoto Tachibana, Nagisa Hazuki and Rin Matsuoka stand in the garden behind the club, discussing what to do with the trophy they’ve won. They decide to bury it as a time capsule and begin digging in an approved spot among the blossoms. Suddenly, they uncover a box with the name “Rin Matsuoka” written on top. When Rin opens it, at the urging of the others, he sees four gold medals and immediately realizes who won them. As he rushes inside to look at the photo depicting his father with his then-teammates on the day they won their relay, he also realizes that the discovered box was buried by his teammates at some point, a symbol of their friendship to be recalled in the future. They return to the garden and bury the trophy alongside the box. Later, thoughts of the future fill their heads once more as they gather with Aki Yazaki near the cherry tree and look at the bricks they’d made and the messages they'd inscribed on them. Makoto, Nagisa and Aki are happy, Rin smiles and Haruka stares at the sky. The future feels hopeful.'
