* A doujin anime by POP, the illustrator of Moetan, that was released at the Comic Market 77 doujin convention.
Keiichirou, a young man who lives alone in his house, went through a lot of pain in his life, since the tragic car accident that killed his parents and younger sister, blaming himself for surviving.
One rainy day, he seeks shelter in an old shrine. There he notices a little girl, sitting on a chair, surrounded by garbage. She herself is garbage — an abandoned android dumped here by someone, holding a sunflower in her hands. Stricken by sudden sadness, he takes her with him to an android repair shop, where he is told that she will never function. So returning home, he dumps her in the dirty bathroom. Waking up the next morning, though, Keiichirou finds the little android girl standing in the kitchen, preparing breakfast. Still without a name — remembering the sunflower — Keiichirou names her Flower. And so begins the life for these two unlikely protagonists.
Note: The Blu-Ray version titled as "Theatrical version" is longer than the regular DVD version that was sold on Comiket. It has additional scenes that were not in the first release. DVD: 28:20 min, Blu-Ray 30:00 min.

Though very well done (the use of the short runtime is examplary) it is simply too short for the ground it wants to cover, try as hard as it does. The lolicon emphasis is unnecessary and reduces it's value. I'd say watch it as it is not a bad short

A pretty touching show. Has a hint of sadness but at the end of the day it is worth watching.

There is this... "strange feeling" all along the OVA... and also this sad moment... but in the end you'll enjoy watching it, because it's really touching!

Short, but very sweet and touching story of young boy and girl that met under weird circumstances, but got fond of each other throught time. This is totally worth your 30 minutes :) not a waste!!

This was so cute! For 30 minutes, I was really touched. This is like a commercial break for those 5 series you know you're watching all at once =)

female, , amnesiaThe character suffers from some kind of amnesia (memory disturbance or loss). This may mean inability to memorize new information, or inability to recollect old memories. Since there are many types of memory, the person may e.g. forget who they are but still retain learned skills.
Amnesia is fairly common in fiction as a plot device. In fact, because it allows for major plot changes while requiring little creativity from the author, it may be subject to heavy overuse., energeticAn energetic character, often also called a genki character, shows great, often excessive levels of activity or vitality, and seems to always be doing everything extra fast. Genki characters are often slightly, or sometimes very, eccentric, and are filled with confidence and determination, regardless of whether they are competent or not; in fact, they often have little to no actual competence at whatever they generally do., headphonesA pair of headphones or a singular headphone are speaker(s) worn over ears., long hairLong hair is hair from (but not including) shoulder-length, up to (but not including) waist length hair. Sidelocks do NOT count as long hair., moeMoe is a Japanese slang loanword that refers to feelings of strong affection mainly towards characters in anime, manga, and video games. At the anime level, the cute girls doing cute things (CGDCT) tag may also apply., purple eyesThis character`s eyes are colored somewhere between red and blue., tone deafThe inability to distinguish musical notes. In other words this character`s musical skills and singing suck beyond words., white hairThe character has pure white hair.

This hair length is longer than what one would typically, though not always, see on most males. Short hair includes hair that goes no more than a centimetre or two beyond the chin; anything longer is shoulder-length. Typical male hair at the back of the head which reaches the shoulders does not count as shoulder-length hair; the individual hair strands are very short (0-4 cm), and therefore count as short hair., yellow hairThe character has yellow hair. This does not map precisely to real-life blond hair.
