In the story of "Kurosawa," we follow a 44-year-old construction worker named Kurosawa who sustains a head injury in a brawl and then lives peacefully in heaven for eight years, immobile on his hospital bed. However, he soon realizes that there are no women in heaven. Driven by his desire to date a woman, Kurosawa decides to leave the luxuries of the afterlife behind and return to Earth with an objective in mind.
Despite his good intentions, Kurosawa's behavior on Earth causes him many undesirable situations. He gropes women, fights, and acts petty, earning him only societal disdain. However, these mistakes are due to his strong human impulses, which also have positive sides. Kurosawa is introspective and learns valuable lessons from his battles.
As he starts his mid-life crisis as a desperate soul searching for a woman, Kurosawa soon finds other worthy reasons to live and gains a new perspective on moral virtues. Despite the challenges he faces, Kurosawa's story teaches us about the importance of self-reflection and learning from our mistakes.
