About This Novel

On the tram to the university, I fell in love at first sight. The 20-year-old "I" who was studying at Kyoto University of Fine Arts met Aimei, a mysterious woman of the same age as me on the train. She was as beautiful and sacred as a flower on the mountain in my heart. Later I found out that I had known her since I was a child.

Meeting is inevitable

The first time I heard about this book was when I saw the movie of the same name in 2017. When I watched it, my heart that had been sealed for many years was suddenly moved. I shed tears unconsciously, maybe because I was touched by the emotions in it. The book is also known as the Japanese version of rejuvenation. As the saying goes, only one encounter in this life occurs after five hundred times of looking back at the past life. Gao Shou once saw the beautiful girl Fu Shou on the tram and fell in love at first sight. Coincidentally, this Fu Shou also felt the same for Gao Shou, and even expressed emotions that far exceeded Gao Shou. Relatively speaking, Fu Shou was a relatively perfect woman, but she was willing to fall in love with Gaoshou, a loser. This story inevitably falls into a cliché. It belongs to the kind of adolescents who yearn for love. It is not much different from the popular overbearing president who fell in love with me. In layman's terms, it is a Mary Sue plot. Such themes are not uncommon. Although it is a Mary Sue plot, the setting of this novel is quite interesting. The timelines of the hero and heroine are opposite, and the parallel worlds are moving forward simultaneously in a clockwise and counterclockwise manner. His tomorrow is her yesterday, which also echoes the theme. Every five years, the two worlds will come together, but they can only stay for forty days. They met in the most beautiful years of youth. In the first half of the book, Fu Shou predicts Gao Shou's paintings on the wall, and he learns that the hotel waiter has the same name as the character in the novel. These casual conversations reflect that Fu Shou is not an ordinary person, at least different from the people around him. Originally, it might be better to simply write about this youthful past, which can give readers room for imagination. Then the question arises: why did Fu Shou fall in love with Gao Shou in the first place? In order to close this loophole, it was written that the two parties told each other the truth of the matter when they were thirty-five years old, and then saved the other party when they were only five years old at the age of thirty-five. This has also become a fatalism, connecting end to end to form a ring, one rotating clockwise, the other rotating counterclockwise, gathering less and leaving more. Gao Shou, who learned the truth, was unwilling to accept this fact. Why should everything continue as planned? Are all the feelings towards him hypocritical? This idea actually gives two people a test and tests the loyalty of love. Imagine a flawless beauty falling in love with each other, but she suddenly tells us that she is not from this world. Will we accept her? Gao Shou thought for a moment and understood that it was not easy for Fu Shou. She was a girl who liked to laugh and worked hard to protect everything between them. Why should they blame each other in this limited time? Even if it is arranged, it is not very important. As long as you truly love the other person, it is enough and cherish every day spent with her. Precisely because the timeline is reversed, this love is doomed to be fruitless, but the process is self-evident. Gao Shou's first encounter, first confession, first hand holding, and first kiss were all undoubtedly Fu Shou's last, the most reluctant one. Fushou is worried that the time they get together is getting shorter and shorter, and Gao Shou is becoming more and more attached to her. Whenever there is such a commemorative occasion, he can't help crying, as if he is feeling regretful, but also seems to be attached to her. Life is very magical. A person is alone in the world, but invisibly there is always a destiny connection with another person, but most people cannot discover the existence of that other person.

Wow wow~ Such a simple and touching novel~ full of Japanese style atmosphere! The love that is destined to be missed is the kind that makes my heart hurt when I read it, but feels much better after reading it. Fortunately, there is a preview, otherwise my heart will definitely hurt to death😞

We met and fell in love once with Gao Shou's knowledge, and fell in love with each other once with Aimei's knowledge. If it weren't for the witness of the notebook, the two-way intersecting trains, a brief coincidence, and then they would go their separate ways!

I think it's one of the best romance novels I've seen so far.

I bought it when I traveled to Hong Kong. I saw that the layout was very novel, so I tried to read it. At first, I really thought it was a very cliché story, about traveling through the future to tell him that our future may not have any results. Without spoiling the story, it would be more shocking to just read the whole book. It was so touching, I cried more than once. There is a movie about this movie, but I think it would be better to read the novel first. I can't seem to find the source in China, so I really hope it can be released. One final rant. Such a well-written novel, but no one has read it

Sure enough, it is a book full of tears. Maybe life is so unfair. We love each other but can't be together. Although I know it is just a novel, I still feel heartbroken...
