| Pretty good series. 6.5/10 My biggest problem was that the one dude who marries Naho in the future got totally fucked. How fucking depressing would it be if you knew you were sloppy seconds but you thought your wife was the best? |

| Indeed, a good series. I'm thinking of rating this a 7 or 8/10. The confession scene felt slightly underwhelming for me but eh...I think worked out in the end. Glad to see Kakeru realized and not for killing himself. Somewhat interested in the live action film. And if by some chance someday, can we get an anime adaptation as well? |
 |
| I'm gonna miss this manga so much. Hopefully, there will be side stories/extra chapters! This can't be the end! i want more ;; im hyped for the liveaction and i wish there is a chance of a anime ;-; 10/10 - One of my favorite series.. ;_; |

| To be frank, I was kinda scared it would end really traumatically or the opposite (lovey gooey Shojou bs). I'm so glad it didn't. It might not have been the best conclusion, but I'm glad every person came of use in this manga. All of the friends contributed to what now exist of the present Kakeru. |
| O_o to be honest, i'm more surprised that i didn't cry reading this chapter, than the actual ending, and it was a really great one, not perfect, just a little bit rushed, but the idea of it was there, and i totally loved it Incredible manga if you ask me .. a 10/10 .. but i'm totally biased here so idrc ^^ .. and once again dafuq am i suppose to do with my life now? .. |
 |
| Hagita is too awesome in this chapter. XD So F. Naho made a vow to save Kakeru again and again and again, even though she will not "witness" her accomplishments. But atleast she saved Kakeru. :) So in the current timeline Kakeru x Naho and then in the "future" world, is still Suwa x Naho. Those sudden confessions are a bit... Meh... Oh well, good manga. :) |

| So is this the end? What are the next chapters going to be about? I'm quite happy since the "present" Naho gets to have a confession from Kakeru and it doesn't change the fact that she married Suwa in the other timeline. |
memylia said: Uhmm I'm sorry, I really enjoyed the manga but: I think what Future Hagita said was the "situation" that happened... Even if them, the future ones, sent the letters to the past, their "past" selves have created an alternate future where Kakeru is alive and a possibility of different lives for the rest of them. (Kakeru and Naho married, Suwa soccer player, and the rest.) this " alternate future where Kakeru is alive" is different and will not undo what happened to Future Naho's Kakeru. (Still dead.). So maybe to this alternate future of their past selves, Naho would still end up with Suwa or a Naho x Kakeru. The author ended it so maybe bonus chapters may show who past Naho ends up with. :) i hope. :D |

| In the lasts pages, when this is written anyway, I just find that so beautiful :_ I'm really glad we got this ending. I know this is really cliché but I was hoping for this kind of end after all, but I hope we get something else like and extra chapter. It's just too open for an ending... |
| Pop bites itself. |
| I seriously love this manga. It got me hooked from start to end, not knowing what possible outcomes may come every time Naho does something. This last chapter tested my patience so much, since I couldn't wait for a month to see what happens to Kakeru. However, I wonder what could've happened if Hagita didn't "break" Kakeru's bycicle? If Kakeru still rode the bike? Would he have swerved away at the last minute when the truck comes or would he have run out of time to think if he really wants to still live or not? |

| beautiful ending. Hagita breaking kakeru's bike though... |
 |
| Hagita - The hero we need. |
| Five more chapters, i wonder how the mangaka will end this series. Because this chapter felt like it could be the last chapter. Or the second last chapter. KAKERU <3 |
| Sigh... I was prepared for the worst but he survived. And the moment they showed the letters for Kakeru I felt like my tears were about to burst. I would've preferred though if Kakeru died. Everything was perfect until I realised he was just scared to death. I also didn't like Naho in general. She is so meek is annoying. Anyways, this manga is amazing! Very enjoyable, interesting concept and it really makes you question yourself about the things you take for granted in life... |
 |
| I think for that last 2 pages.. Is this really the last chapter? How come it says 27 chapters on the manga page. @_@ |

| its about damn time that japanese truck driver failed at killing a main character from manga/anime |
 |
| Parallel universes are great, because with the ending I like to believe that: |
| Can't even begin to explain how relieved I am that it didnt end in a tragedy. At first I felt the last chapter was too short but after re-reading it I changed my mind, the ending felt very complete- kakerus self-loathing and suicidal thoughts didnt magically disappear(thats the way depression is, it doesnt just go away) but now the people dear to him know about it and can lend their love and support to him, absolutely loved the group hug between them all. Last page with parallel world naho looking back really broke my heart, I'm sure shes at peace knowing that the other kakeru is alive but it still doesnt change the fact that her kakeru is dead. A lot of people seem to be confused with the couple situation, whether naho ends up with kakeru or suwa-she basically ends up with the both of them, just in completely different worlds/timelines. So suwa fans dont worry, he has a happy ending with naho in the other timeline. |
| The desire to be loved is the last illusion. Give it up and you will be free. |
| Orange has left me with so many feelings... Honestly I was expecting Kakeru's death since this would make the story closer to our human reality: we cannot change the past and, even if parallel worlds are real, we aren't able to change the past of our world, of ourselves. This ending, although more painful, it would be good as well (in my opinion) because in the end the decision of living was at Kakeru's hands, so the point was on doing everything which was at their fingertips to show him motives to keep living whatever it was his final veredict. Nevertheless, the actual ending is brilliant. I feel it more like a hope in the future: you must make an effort every day for the ones you love and you will be giving them more encouragement to live. By the way, Suwa was a wondrous character until the end. I think one of his quotes summarize the meaning of the story very well: "I never imagined that losing you would be this painful and would make me feel this lonely. I'm sorry for taking you for granted." That's it: this story is about learning to not take anything, anyone, for granted. Every day is the last day, we are the ones who built the way to tomorrow. For this reason, for now I shall give to this work 9/10 points. I will wait until the last extra chapter to make my final decision. |

| Great manga, really emotional and well done ending. I know that this is a detail, but how were the letters sent to the past? I didn't get it... or did the author didn't explain it? |
| Was a little confused at the end but glad it all ended on a positive note. 9/10, really enjoyed reading it. A bittersweet read :-) |
| Seriously? Eeeh. Giving a 7 cause it made excited enough to read some chapters in a rush. It's that kind of thing I don't regret reading, but that's not that good as well. Wanted a tragic ending, though. |

| I'm glad they saved Kakeru, thanks to Hagita lol. The ending was really beautiful..ahh my feels.. and Suwa still remained the best character. i know it's the last chapter but why's the last page didn't have "The END" or something like that? |
| Not a kakeru fan. But for Naho, I feel like Suwa is just a replacement to kakeru. LoL |
 |
| I feel a little bad for Suwa, but I hope he becomes a soccer star in this future. I was crying through out this chapter. It was honestly so touching and beautiful. And it says there are 27 chapters so this can't be the end, right? |
| such an amazing way to end a ~love triangle~ |
 |
| Wonderful manga, really, I can't find words to describe my feeling about it... But is this the end? I mean this chapter was the last one? |
Chierii said: Scared of death at the last moment.... legit, because he was thinking of it all the time and he feels fear when it almost happens..... Dunno, kinda felt anticlimactic and then they kind of threw in comedy when they said Hagita broke his bicycle..... I didn't quite like it for some reason.... Meh, it was rushed. Still enjoyable overall, but it kinda feels empty because of all the unexplained stuff that could have been explained if it were a tad bit longer. I will miss this manga and I'll probably make a layout about it soon lol My exact thoughts on the ending. It felt simply rushed and anticlimactic. It honestly, lacked the finesse that the whole series had. Like the series felt like it was leading to some grand finale. Anyways i did enjoy it. I did wish they elaborated a bit more on the characters and the time travel. 7/10 |
 |
| Wait.....why does it say 5 more chapters? That was the conclusion right?? |
 |
| Okay, I hate future Naho now (the present Naho isn't at fault) Like, at least write to your younger self that she is married to Suwa. I know that it might get in the way of "operation save Kakeru" but FOR GOD'S SAKE he's your husband. Your younger self has the right to know it. No doubt, future Suwa got insecure about their relationship, thinking Naho would choose Kakeru if he was alive. She was all like, "no, it won't happen" but the manga left it ambiguous (if not pointing in the direction of Kakeru x Naho) whether she chose him or not. Ah, it would have been good for drama's sake, too.. Oh well. I hope there's a sequel in which this issue is confronted. Other than that, Kakeru is saved and is finally able to look forward. Man, he must be overjoyed when they told him they got letters. He must have gone like, "ah, so that's why all of them acted a bit suspicious so far. Like nothing out of ordinary but something felt a little wrong" He must have felt extremely happy, thinking how his friends are perfect and he is glad to have them. Hagita was awesome there, messing up with his bike lol. Good job, dude. Would have done the same *thumbs up* And Suwa best character of this manga! He's such a brave person, I would not be able to take it if I was in his position. Apart from this one problem I had, I still love this manga a lot. It has a good message but it would have been better if it gave a more, "fate can't be changed" message. Can't be helped. Besides, it's all upto the author. She did a fabulous job with what was there. Grateful for writing a beautiful piece of art. |
 |
| Can't help but think this could be more, and it seems a bit rushed the past chapters. This last chapter is good though, especially on the friendship theme-- I think it's actually what this manga do best. Feel so bad for Suwa, even though he seems happy. Best character indeed, and Hagita best comedic relief lol, and he's actually the hero in this chapter xD |
| Hagita best boy. 8/10 for the series. I'm so gonna buy the manga once the English one is released. |
 |
| Nice ending 8/10 Liked Takano's way to end a love triangle xD Gonna miss Suwa and Hagita ;-; |
 |
| I really liked this end but wanted to show that ended with naho (I was a little unsure when she said she also wanted there to be a timeline where she and suwa marry), but I think maybe the creator wanted the person who is reading the final choice. I'm glad I survived kakeru :) |

| Loved the ending, that's a pretty clever solution for a love triangle. Hagita the best. |
| I didn't cry at the last chapters, it felt too rushed. I rated it a 10/10, because I like how it's based on friendship. Hagita was my favorite character. And although I like Kakeru, I think Suwa is a better match for Naho :P |
