Naho receives a letter from herself, written ten years in the future, warning her to change certain events or have serious regrets in the future. She realizes that she must trust the letter in order to prevent the suicide of a close friend, but the letter becomes less accurate as events have already been changed due to her actions. This manga novel would appeal to a limited audience and is best suited as a silent reading choice for senior students or to engage students transitioning from graphic to print literature, for creative writing activities, and as a reference work for art students or class studying manga.
