Looking Up at the Half-Moon

半分の月がのぼる空

After contracting hepatitis A, high school student Yuuichi Ezaki is confined to a hospital ward, isolated from his friends and normal life. His boredom leads him to frequently sneak out, earning him stern reprimands from his nurse. His routine changes when he meets Rika Akiba, a girl his age who is also a long-term patient. While immediately struck by her beauty, Yuuichi soon discovers Rika is selfish, moody, and domineering.

Despite their clashing personalities, the two teenagers are drawn together by their shared isolation. Within the hospital's walls, they experience the tentative joys and heartaches of a first love, forging a deep connection. Their budding romance unfolds under the shadow of Rika's serious illness, which casts a poignant uncertainty over their time together.
