Ooof, I almost didn't finish the first chapter because it brought up a lot of unprocessed pain from my loved ones dying on me. The ending though has got me just as confused as anyone here.

I love the author and their style, but do I trust them enough to turn Tragedy into Wholesomeness?

huh, was the last part a hallucination or supernatural element?

Well, either way, this sure will be super sad, cuz the lover (Sakura) will only stay for a year to fill up the diary before disappearing again. I'm gonna be prepared to cry a lot.

Everyone deals with grief in their own ways, but this is definitely... unconventional

A number of people here are really expecting this to be some ghost or hallucination, but really with the type of story this seems to be it's probably more that she's just in Haruki's imagination, something she's given herself to help her through the stages of grief. And I can imagine that's going to be what this is about, and it will end with her accepting Sakura's death.

"This here is for you to die again (Haruki coming to terms with Sakura's death and accepting it) and for me to live once again (Haruki moving on with the memory of Sakura in her heart. or something. Wording it is hard)."

I imagine it as though the grief has her in a rut. She's pacing the same circle, over and over. This Sakura, the Sakura that "came back to life" through the journal, is her pulling herself out of that rut, only in the end to understand that Sakura would not have wanted her to simply waste away after her death in a perpetual state of grievance and despair. I can already see the "Thank you, Sakura. I'll be fine from now on" at the end. But that doesn't mean I'm not going to enjoy the ride in the meantime.

It's going to be bittersweet, but I bet it'll be fulfilling.
