Feel the earthquake hit Tokyo. Find the four members of the Mutou family together. Ayumu and Gou leave the city with their parents while disaster follows. The objective stays immediate: keep moving as a family through a place that is no longer safe.

Gigguku

The disaster may cover all of Japan, but the starting need is brutally simple: the Mutou family has to escape Tokyo together. Ayumu, Gou, and their parents keep the enormous premise human because every danger reaches four specific people trying to move!

Father's Basement

The series approaches disaster with little restraint, and the premise promises severe pressure from the start. The family viewpoint provides clarity. By following Ayumu, Gou, and their parents as they attempt to leave Tokyo, the crisis remains attached to one understandable objective.

The setting for this adaptation is moved from 1970s Japan to 2020, just after the Tokyo Olympics. The story centers on the Mutou family, and the siblings Ayumu and Gou.
