Synopsis
The story introduces Yuto Arisaka, a quiet, introspective high school senior attending the Hanabira Summer Festival. He plans to confess his feelings to Aira Tsukishiro, his cheerful childhood friend. The setting is lively and colorful, filled with traditional Japanese festival elements—lanterns, food stalls, and fireworks. As Yuto spots Aira and contemplates confessing, a sudden and mysterious explosion occurs on the festival hill where fireworks were set to launch. Blue light bursts across the sky, chaos unfolds, and Yuto hears Aira shout for him to run before she is swallowed by the explosion. Moments later, Yuto wakes up in his bedroom, completely unharmed, with his alarm going off. It's Sunday, 7:00 AM—exactly one week before the explosion. The chapter ends with the realization that he’s been sent back in time. --- Themes and Purpose: Emotional Hook: The chapter builds tension with a relatable scenario (unspoken love), then shatters it with a sudden tragedy. Mystery & Intrigue: The supernatural twist (time reset) raises immediate questions. Character Setup: Yuto is established as thoughtful and hesitant, while Aira is lively and compassionate. Tone: Melancholy and suspenseful with a hint of romantic nostalgia, typical of anime-style time loop dramas.

Synopsis:

When Yuto Arisaka, a quiet high school senior, witnesses his childhood friend Aira die in a mysterious explosion during a city-wide festival, he finds himself thrown back exactly seven days before the incident. Now caught in a time loop that resets every Sunday at midnight, Yuto must uncover the truth behind the explosion, face off against supernatural forces, and navigate a web of relationships—especially his unresolved feelings for Aira.

But every loop changes something, and the more he meddles with fate, the more he realizes he's not the only one aware of the loop.
