Babel's Letter

Even after all these years, you’re still the only one I think of… I’ll put all of my feelings into this letter for you.

A little hard to follow and sad. I thought it was just okay although its meant to be *deep*.

Replay

Honey Moon
As her father married again, Mio has a stepbrother. Surprisingly (or not -___-), he is Junpei whom she has been in one-sided love with. The situation complicated her feelings, but they began to live together. Now Mio and Jumpei have to spend three weeks alone.

Overdone, predictable, and corny. And apparently parents don't have feelings too.

Best Position
This protagonist is considered a buddy and "the funny girl" by the guy she likes. He asks her to be in a comedy competition with him. She agreed and she likes to be besides him because that's the best position to see him from.

Liked it a lot! (:

Cool

I kind of guessed why (was right!) and I didn't really get the ending (translation barrier?) but I still like it.

Last Scene
The year is coming to a close and our female protagonist isn't really feeling it. But she's part of the committee responsible for the end of the year party. They are going to make a video of the class. And there is one boy in particular who is very good at filming.

Sad but so worth it.
