    Summary

    Winter's fallen on Last Defense Academy, and Takumi's freezing trying to get his work done. At the same time, he's weighing a proposal in his mind that might change the life of a certain, special friend forever.

    When he's saddled with an unexpected job, he musters the courage to have a hard conversation. Shion's kindness warms his heart—just like always.

    It'd be nice, if things could stay that way. But maybe it was just a selfish wish.

    Summary

    Eito leaned in close, too close for Takumi’s comfort as the former grabbed his cheeks. There’s faint tear marks down his eyes as he whispered. “Save them this time, or I’m going to control you once more when you wake and kill you myself.”
    Takumi screamed as searing hot pain went through his body. Eito faded with him, closing his eyes for what may be the last time.

    In the middle of his second scenario, Takumi had chosen to kill Eito instead, which lead to him sharing his consciousness. He had turned back time just a bit to spare him, and continued on with the second scenario. By the end of this timeline, Takumi was ready to die with all his friends' hopes and dreams, yet Eito was unwilling, using Shion and his own cryptoglobin to send Takumi back in time for a third giant leap.
    Now, Takumi has to navigate a third scenario, overcome unbidden feelings and reunite with old friends in order to ensure the peace of both humanity and Futurans alike.

    Summary

    Takumi tried and tried but it was never enough. No matter how many times he went back in time, things always went wrong. This run wasn’t an exception. It didn’t mean he would give up, no matter what, he was going to give a happy ending to his remaining friends. But how was he supposed to do it when he didn’t feel worthy of being a leader anymore? Maybe the answer lies in Yugamu and his pills.

    Summary

    I knew this wouldn’t be easy for either of us, but sometimes you had to burn the forest floor to encourage new growth... I had at least taken that crucial first step, planting a seed of doubt in Eito’s mind over whether it was even worth clinging onto his lifelong grudge against humanity. I could already feel that things were diverting from the future where I made that promise... I just had to believe in the Eito who stood with me until the end and wanted to change—who died desperately wanting for me to understand him. The Eito in front of me now was that same person, but he also wasn’t... Even just my presence here has put something intangible in motion.

    After losing everything, with the last shred of his strength Takumi managed to go back a third time. Armed with the knowledge of the true nature of the war they were forced to fight, and the decision he and his comrades—his family—all made together at the end, he’d make damn sure they all came out of this on the right side of history. This time, he’d be able to keep everyone alive—and he had a new promise to keep. The others might not understand it, but...
