Meeting at the red-brick station
In *Shōwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjū*, the young rakugoka Kikuhiko and his partner Sukeroku, dressed in kimono, stand in front of an old red-brick station. The station's facade features arched windows and doors, with a large round clock above. On one side of the square, tram tracks run with an occasional yellow tram passing by. They talk about the future of rakugo under the setting sun, the atmosphere calm and slightly melancholic.
