"I dedicate this book to the most important person in my life." Eita was in his third year, and he worried about what to do after graduation. Shinonome says that she will go on to university after all. Eita figured that because he had no talents in particular, he should do the same, but he felt lost, not knowing what he truly wanted to do. Comparing himself with Shinonome, who has already realized her dream of becoming a novelist, Eita was driven by a vague sense of frustration, but the time he has spent with Shinonome began to faintly illuminate a future goal worth pursuing....... A frustrating and bittersweet love story, as he makes a final decision. (Source: Enterbrain, translated)
