This time, the setting is a long-established insect specialty store in Tokyo. The store carries 100 species of beetles and stag beetles collected from Japan and abroad. The store also has insect nets and beautiful butterfly specimens. The store is visited by a variety of people, including a father who is working alone and is addicted to insects with his son, a working adult who enjoys raising insects from larvae, and a woman who has loved insects since she was a child. Why are people attracted to insects? We asked them for three days to find out the answer.
