From the time I met and fell in love with you until the time you met me, this is the tale of a miracle.... more>>

I underwent a heart transplant when I was 13, and I’ve been dreaming about being a girl ever since.

I’m sure this is the person’s recollection who became the donor.

I fell in love with her right away because she was cheerful, vivacious, and happy.

It is a love that will never be reciprocated. She and I are never going to meet. We are unable to speak or touch one other. And yet—

I want to meet her.

I want to talk with her.

I want to touch her.

I want to… save her. <<less

This stands at the forefront of strategy guides to Life (a shitty video game)!... more>>

Life is a bad video game. This commonplace phrase is, unfortunate as it might be, the truth.

After all, Life has no simple, easy rules. The rules it does have are nothing but irrational and unfair. The strong claim that Life has a high level of freedom, but the weak have no choice but to cope with an overwhelmingly disadvantageous design.

That’s why it’s a sh*t game.

Since I, Japan’s leading gamer who has experienced and mastered a multitude of games, say so, there can be no mistake.

— However, that person, on top of having mastered gaming to about the same level as I, declared to me that Life is a god-tier game.

Destined to be a top-tier character, that person is the school’s perfect heroine, Hinami Aoi. And to top it off, she even says she will teach me the rules of Life?

…… Normally, I wouldn’t believe such a thing. However, Hinami Aoi is someone who does not fit into a frame like ‘normal’ at all!

The host doesn’t play by the rules and System 168 expresses its extreme weariness.

Wen Su, who came from the abyss full of bones, said, “If the heavens forsakes me, then let the hundred ghosts roam the world; if the world hates me, then let the blood flow into rivers; if my families and friends hate me, then I’ll disregard moral principles and turn my back on my own blood relatives.”

Bai Tang: Be good, I will provide you with food and clothing, a place to live and transportation. I will guide you to strive for a life that is both intellectually and emotionally rich, and one that is filled with diverse and meaningful experiences. Just be a good person! Then I will not point my sword at your heart, nor put you in an iron cage.

Wen Su: Oh? I want you.
I was originally in the abyss, but since you came in carrying poisonous light, I wasn’t burnt by its poison. Since then, unable to forget, I put away my body full of spikes and thorns.
