This was a well written and illustrated manga. I enjoyed it. The two love interests were cute and clueless in the best way. But this was YA so the characters are in high school. Very sweet and believable for their age.
Disclaimer, this deals with coming to terms with a suicide, as well as the character dealing with it feeling depressed and like taking their own life too. There is a speculative aspect to this story in the form of letters sent from the future to their past selves. These letters are coaching the characters with ways to make this depressive character feel happy and try to prevent him from taking his life in an accident. I think the author handled this sensitive topic in a very age appropriate way for teens. It is left on a cliffhanger as this is the first in a series.
