A rehearsal video of the drama club's "I Want to Die" musical goes viral, drawing the attention of the school administration. Will they succumb to pressure to ditch the negativity? Angst, highly emotional declarations, secret plots and dirty tricks ensue.

A strong volume that shows that the time travel gimmick probably wasn't even necessary for this series.

So which is it going to be? Will the drama club perform "I Want to Live" or the original version of the musical they created? Imamura digs in his heels. He wants to perform so badly that I feel for him - wow, he's come such a long way in this do-over. The moment of truth arrives and we find out just how evil the faculty advisor can be (and we thought we already knew...).

This volume pushed the series for me into making this a favorite. There's just so much heart in this story that I can't wait to see what happens next.

Okay so again!! Is a story about how a a high schools student that is graduating going back in time to when he was younger in high school to live out his life with no regrets and finds the girl he had a crush on. He soon ends up joining a club called OSU I believe where he participated so that the club won’t go to shit it turns out the girl he like is the captain of this club and maybe even a love triangle. I wind how it will end 🤔

So the predicted problems about the title and theme of the musical popped up.

Inamura got to be a perv and confused me about he tf he likes AGAIN. He’s getting to be such a lame guy...

This series is quickly losing it's appeal.

Okay the musical was actually really funny. I'd love to hear the songs performed because it'd be dumb but it'd be funny too. I'm glad that they did the school sanctioned one so they didn't end up in a lot of trouble but still managed to get the non-sanctioned one out there.

I'm not in to musicals so it was a little hard to read for me but an okay read all things considered.

To be honest, it's just something I really enjoy binge reading, so I'm really enjoying myself here. It's an easy series to slip into and dive through.

I loved the series at first but now it’s losing its appeal. I don’t like Taka and what’s going on with the romance between Usami and Imamura?

The musical comes to fruition- but not exactly as they envisioned it! Will the true message of the depressed make it through to inspire other lost souls?

This story is so twisty and I wonder how it will all end (i.e., what will the present/future now look like for these characters?).
