    Reader note

    It's somewhat ensemble-oriented, but then so many people die—only one survives out of seven, all for their ideals. The female lead is resurrected later. I really don't know why this book has such a low rating, but it's truly excellent. I read the manga on another platform a long time ago before switching to the original novel, but I don't know why it has such a low rating here. Even long after finishing it, this book still leaves a deep impression. The later parts are incredibly heart-wrenching; it's a true gem from the early days of angst-filled novels.
