Fairly Simple Story, Cut Too Short
The story of 時をかける少女 reads like an overscoped short film that had to be cut short and sloppily wrapped up with stageplay exposition. A pity with how well everything is set up.
I got the non-furigana Kadokawa version, which came with 2 other short stories from the same author, and I enjoyed these stories much more than the first.
At first, the usage of only hiragana for words that aren't usually kana-only was offputting and difficult, but after half the book, I was able to get used to the author's style and it became very readable.
