Came from the "Moon"... "Squirrel"! ? "Let's go on an adventurous trip to the night forest where time has stopped!A fantasy drawn by puppet animation artist Takeshi Yashiro.
A boy and his family lived modestly in a forest with huge trees.
One night, when the boy couldn't sleep, his father said, "It's because the moon is stuck in the tree." The two enter the night forest to remove the moon, but the moon soon begins to move.
