Riding motorcycles used to be my favorite thing. I was particularly good at starting (and, most importantly, finishing) fights. I wanted nothing to do with love. I was tough! I mean, I had to be! I used to be in a gang, after all. And then, I was reincarnated… into a bad romance simulation game?! As the heroine?! And if I don’t fall in love, I’ll die?! Look, my new body is beautiful, delicate, and, admittedly, pretty hot… but does anyone seriously expect me, a former delinquent with zero experience dating, to do this? This game is impossibly hard! So I’ve decided to make sure the game never starts. Yeah, so long as I avoid my four love interests — the overly emotionally attached Crown Prince, my demonic step brother, the controlling prince second-in-line to the throne, and that royal guardsman with a split personality — everything should be fine… right? *Source: MangaPlaza*

Is a manga which Miyazaki wrote for a newspaper targeted for children. It is more of a graphic novel than a manga, since most of the text are written outside of the frames and there are very few dialogue bubbles (though towards the end of the story, it moved closer to the traditional manga style). The surprisingly dark story deals with the devastation of war, betrayal, and the ugliness of the human nature under desperate situations, including deaths of several characters. One can see the influence of TEZUKA Osamu in the art style of this manga (as in most of the manga written in this time), but you can also clearly see the style and motives you find in Miyazaki's later works such as "Nausicaä". In a sense, this is a prototype of "Nausicaä".
