How do you say "thank you" and "goodbye" to a woman who has been domineering and difficult her whole life? Especially when that woman is your mother! Yukari had long struggled in a chaotic love-hate relationship with her mother Chieko, so when her mother is diagnosed with advanced stage pancreatic cancer with just months to live, she is faced with a difficult situation. Takinami honestly recounts the turmoil created by this announcement from her sister Nao without ever descending into pathos. At first she thinks of the practical—where should her mother be, who's going to look after her, how can I with my work and my child? Then slowly she starts to face the fact of losing this energetic woman who had never even caught a cold to her memory! After years marked by difficult communication, will they now manage to overcome their conflicts and say what's truly in their hearts before it's too late? (Source: Ponent Mon/Fanfare)

I want to continue this journey together with you. This is the story of a lonely bear and an outcast crow, and their journey to find their "irreplaceable companion." Somewhere in Japan is a black bear who lives deep in the forest. In his childhood, he was separated from his family and has never met another bear. The bear is alone, until he meets a city-raised crow... The two decide to search for the bear's companions that he's never met before. Passing through mountains, forests, grasslands, volcanoes, and lakes, meeting deer, owls, herons, and boars, can the two find their "irreplaceable companion?" What about the existence of Yatagarasu, the God who grants only one wish? (Source: Bungeishunju, translated)
