Note: if you're concerned about a 7 yr age gap where the younger character is 14, turn back now.

So back in middle school, when everyone was 14 there was a love triangle. Eventually 2 of the girls started dating, then one of them disappeared a week later, only to reappear in front of the other two, as her middle school self, 7 years later. Interesting premise, the supernatural element could be interesting, the psychological element is certainly interesting, and it could go in various directions, more and less wholesome.

It's not headed anywhere wholesome anytime soon. At the end of the volume, there's already a 14 year old dating a 21 year old. It's only gets more uncomfortable from there. Also the 14 year old looks and behaves more like an older high school student anyway, so I don't get why the author didn't just make them a high school student (actually I think it's because they wanted to connect it to 七夕祭り while still having the older characters be in college... Either that or for shock value). Anyway things will start getting pretty toxic.

While I decided to keep reading, I can't really recommend it to anyone else, and tbh if I'd paid more attention before starting it, I wouldn't have picked it up at all.
