86--EIGHTY-SIX Alter.1: The Reaper's Occasional Adolescence
By Asato Asato
Illustrated by Shirabii
They were in the midst of youth, even on the battlefield... Shin, Lena, and their friends experience brief moments of peace and happiness while facing certain death, enjoying a short break, plunging into battle once again, and setting foot for the first time into the frigid United Kingdom—sharing those moments with their comrades, friends, lovers, and family. Glimpse another side of 86—EIGHTY-SIX that will leave you wishing against all odds that more such moments will visit them again tomorrow. This volume contains various short stories previously uncollected or unpublished, now compiled into a single volume!
The Bubble Love of the Mermaid
Asana Amamizu's life changed forever when a red, scalelike mark appeared on her wrist. Ever since, her family has treated her like she's a monster. Now sixteen years old, she does her best to live normally and attends the Yotsuru Girls' Academy. One day, the school is suddenly abuzz with exciting news: The handsome new Language Arts teacher, Sakuya Shigure, has arrived. Unlike the other girls, Asana keeps her distance. After all, a guy like that wouldn't have anything to do with a girl like her. That is, until an unexpected marriage proposal falls right into her lap! She and Sakuya may have more in common than she could have imagined.
