Nemurubaka: Hypnic Jerks

A college dorm comedy where rent stress sounds more urgent than guitar riffs. Yumi Irisu juggles shelving used paperbacks and her freeloading bandmate roommate Ruka Kujirai, who treats grocery budgets like an abstract art concept. The film somehow makes financial drift look oddly melodic.
