My Sunshine 2025

Takuya is a young boy that appears listless during baseball and hockey practices. After a hockey match where he plays as the goalie, he is enraptured by Sakura, a young girl practicing figure skating. Takuya begins attempting spirals and spins in his hockey skates and is noticed by Arakawa, Sakura’s coach and former competitive figure skater. Arakawa lends Takuya his old figure skates and begins providing him free lessons.

Arakawa visits a gas station, where his lover Igarashi works. At their home, Igarashi remarks that Arakawa is talking about skating again and appears happier after beginning to coach Takuya. As Takuya improves, Arakawa suggests Takuya and Sakura skate as an ice dance pair. Sakura was originally coached by Arakawa for women’s singles figure skating, and is initially apprehensive. They begin learning the Dutch waltz, with the intention of attending the upcoming badge test. After visiting a frozen lake to practice, the three become closer in their pursuit, and the pair successfully learns the pattern dance.

While walking, Sakura happens to see Arakawa and Igarashi sharing a popsicle in his car. She then privately questions Arakawa on his motives for teaching Takuya, and expresses disgust towards him. At the badge test, Takuya and Arakawa wait for Sakura, but she does not arrive. Sakura’s mother terminates lessons with Arakawa and states that Sakura does not intend to stop figure skating, but refuses to be coached by Arakawa and advises he stay away from her. Takuya returns to hockey lessons and Sakura returns to single skating.

Igarashi and Takuya discuss how Igarashi cannot leave his father’s business, the gas station, but Igarashi can coach anywhere as he now has no students at the local rink. As spring arrives, Takuya walks home from school in a baggy middle school uniform carrying baseball equipment. Arakawa, driving by, greets Takuya and they drive to the now thawed lake where the three previously practiced. As they play catch, Takuya notices the boxes in Arakawa’s car trunk and questions if he is leaving and if he will return. Arakawa states that he unsure and Takuya offers to return his figure skates, but Arakawa says they are a gift.

Takuya later walks towards the rink, holding the figure skates. He encounters Sakura walking from the rink, having previously just practiced her single program to part of Clair de lune. The film closes with Takuya about to speak to Sakura.
