Nadeshiko, a high school student who had moved from Shizuoka to Yamanashi, decides to see the famous, 1000 yen-bill-featured Mount Fuji. Even though she manages to bike all the way to Motosu, she's forced to turn back because of worsening weather. Unable to set her eyes on her goal, she faints partway to her destination. When she wakes up, it's night, in a place she's never been before, with no way of knowing how to get home. Nadeshiko is saved when she encounters Rin, a girl who is out camping by herself. This outdoorsy girls story begins with this first encounter between Nadeshiko and Rin.
In his past life, he was known as Demon Lord Varvatos, an all-powerful magic user and ruler. But he was lonely after the loss of his friends and loved ones during his rise to power, so in his dying moments, Varvatos cast a reincarnation spell so that he'd get a second chance at just being a normal guy. At first it looks like that's going to work – he's reborn thousands of years later as villager Ard. Unfortunately for him, his memories are still intact and he's not aware just how much has been lost over the time he spent not existing, and it looks like that's going to cost him his normal life.
The war has been going on for some time. Every day, Take Five, a guard protecting the deserted border district of Firebird, sits alone by his radio. It doesn't matter to him what's going on in the war front. His daily routine is to enjoy a game of radio poker with his unknown colleague on the other end of the radio. Marina, a young girl who vaguely believes in the happiness of the phantom city, comes to the border to board a refugee ship bound for Shanghai. However, her future is crushed by a ruthless gunshot... Fear and a sense of danger in a controlled society where dreams, hopes, and cravings for freedom lead to death. The hard-boiled narrative, which telegraphs the need to lament, is very stylish and wonderful.
