About Hitozuma pachinkaa: Tama korogashi
Noriko and Kyosuke got married despite their parents' objections. Kyosuke was saving money so that they could go on a trip abroad together, instead of having a wedding ceremony. When he finally saved up enough money, he tried to fulfill his promise to Noriko, but in fact Noriko was addicted to pachinko and had spent all the money...

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1996.
