Plot
A poignant and funny time-skip manga about grief, art, and love, like Orange meets Monthly Girls’ Nozaki-kun, from the creator behind the Netflix miniseries Switched. Complete in five volumes.
Mahoro’s high school manga club had two members: her and a classmate who passed away months after they met. Now, she’s an award-winning pro, but what no one else knows is that she stole the ideas for her hit manga from the notebook her dead classmate left behind. When fate gives her an opportunity to redeem herself, she’ll do whatever it takes to return Yukishima’s story–and save him from dying.
Mahoro Haruta is a manga artist whose first series became a huge bestseller. Her publisher expects her sophomore effort to be even better. There’s just one problem: Mahoro has no idea what to draw next, because she plagiarized the story that skyrocketed her to stardom from a high school classmate named Yukishima, who shared a few precious months with Mahoro in the school’s manga club before passing away and leaving her his notebook.
When, after a strange encounter, Mahoro wakes up ten years in the past—around the time of her first meeting with Yukishima—she realizes this could be her chance to redeem herself, erase her regrets, and maybe even save Yukishima’s life…
