55Graduation is just around the corner. Only a little while longer for them to call themselves active high school girls. The days of their youth are remembered, filled with loneliness, sadness, and regret. What exactly is the "graduation ceremony" that signals the end of those tiresome days as high school girls? The innocent Goda, Matsuda from the track and field club, Tajima who lives by inertia, Sanada the honor student, Kaneko and Kariya who hate school. This is an innocent yet grotesque coming-of-age story about the graduation of six high school girls. (Source: Kadokawa, translated)
