I Wish I Could Meet You Again on the Hill Where That Flower Blooms (Light Novel) Vol. 1

The hit light novel that inspired a manga and a live-action film returns with the first English-language volume of I Wish I Could Meet You Again on the Hill Where That Flower Blooms. In a story that blends romance, time travel, and wartime atmosphere, modern-day Kano Yuri, fed up with her routine, flees home only to wake in a past era after taking shelter in an air-raid shelter. She soon meets a dashing Kamikaze pilot whose fate seems linked to hers, challenging both their worlds and the boundaries of time. Through 320 pages, writer Natsue Shiomi builds a tender, bittersweet romance as love crosses centuries—and risk, duty, and memory press in from every direction. This first volume sets up a haunting, emotionally charged journey about choosing between comfort and a destiny shaped by the past.
