Volumes Status in Japan :: complete at 16 volumes Status in US :: 15/16 released
Volume 1 Nanami starts high school with high hopes of making lots of friends. She develops a crush on the enigmatic Yano, but he may have too many secrets for her to handle.
Volume 2 You know, that guy...He doesn't seem to need anybody else. I don't know how to put it, but...No matter how much we talk or what we do...It doesn't reach him.
Volume 3 Every day, all day, I think about him. I wonder if there's a limit to love? I'm no longer able to imagine a world without him.
Volume 4 It's not regret. I just feel that......maybe I messed up a bit...That's all.
Volume 5 In love, timing is everything. If you can't convey your feelings at that crucial moment, even fate will pass you by.
Volume 6 What would be a present that's better than your past? It's simply this...You're here, and I'm here.
Volume 7 I know what Yano was like before he started going out with my sister…And what he was like after she died. How he held the tears back and looked as if he wanted to die…I understand him a whole lot better than you.
Volume 8 I don't know if I'm following my fate……or going against it. But there is one thing I want……and that is for Yano's wish to come true.
Volume 9 In my memory I link together fragments from the past when we were together...to create a clear image of him in my mind. But I no longer know if that image is really him. That moment I see in my mind may have never existed.
Volume 10 In my memory I link together fragments from the past when we were together......to create a clear image of him in my mind. But I no longer know if that image is really him. That moment I see in my mind may have never existed.
Volume 11 There's a fine line between strength and weakness. Everyone needs something to hold on to......just to live life.
Volume 12 I love you. That's why I promised myself......the next time we meet...I'll never let you go.
Volume 13 I'm 24 years old......but I still feel the same as I did at 17. I can feel the waves rushing toward me. This time I'm going to let the current take me. I'm going to chase after you like a child.
Volume 14 When you're in love, once you hit the switch...…one can really say...…what will truly happen. The impossible may even become possible.
Volume 15 More than anything else...you must have wanted...to live up to Nanami's expectations.
I love this series! heart Once you get into this series, its just something you have to keep following (at least, I think...) And its also really sad... It kinda reminded me of "Sand Chronicles" whee
