Collection of four features directed by Nobuhiko Obayashi. In 'School in the Crosshairs' (1981) high school student Yuka Mitamura (Hiroko Yakushimaru) discovers that she has the ability to bend time and she must quickly learn to master her new abilities. The arrival of new student Michiru Takamizawa (Masami Hasegawa), who possesses similar powers along with a desire to use them for evil, threatens the school and Yuka and her friend Koji Seki (Ryôichi Takayanagi) must work together to stop her. However, there is a darker force at work in the form of Kyogoku (Tôru Minegishi), a demon-like extraterrestrial being, who Yuka must defeat if freedom is to prevail. 'The Girl Who Leapt Through Time' (1983) stars Tomoyo Harada as Kazuko Yoshiyama, a high school student who discovers that she can move through time after she is involved in an accident in the chemistry lab. As she attempts to learn more about what happened to her, she falls in love with Kazuo (Takayanagi), a boy with similar abilities, but is Kazuo worthy of her love? In 'The Island Closest to Heaven' (1984) Harada again stars as Mari Katsuragi, a girl desperate to visit New Caledonia because her late father promised her that one day they would visit the island closest to heaven together. Finally, in 'His Motorbike, Her Island' (1986) biker Koh Hashimoto (Riki Takeuchi) meets Miyoko Shiraishi (Kiwako Harada) while riding through her hometown and teaches her to ride a motorcycle.
