I absolutely love this story: I adore the character designs, the setting, the main characters and the art work.
That being said, the story is not the most logical at times, e.g. Teiou's "solution" which comes down to luck and just wanting something badly. The translation isn't always fluid and reads strangely modern for the setting. I love this story despite these flaws because it has stayed with me for a long time and was very formative for me. However, of people read this without any context, they may not like the story that much.

I don't care and pray (still after over 10 years) that the books get translated.

Die Reihe selbst muss ich echt mal vervollständigen. Ich mag sie so gerne und dieser Sonderband war wundervoll!!!

Love the artwork. Would have been a solid 4 stars if not for the misleading storyline. The flow of it wasn't smooth and there are times I get confused by the events. Hence I am only giving it a 3.5 stars.

German edition. This is an extra volume in the series, telling the readers the story of Keika and Teiou, how they met, how they fell in love. Beautiful drawings as always, Mamiya Oki rocks!

I read the novel version of this story...and when I think of what's going to happen to the main characters...I feel like screaming! It's so sad! I hope everyone will turn up okay!
