Synopsis

A heart can only beat so many times in a lifetime. Kokuhaku disease, a rare condition that weakens the heart, leaves the victim with less heartbeats and a shorter lifespan than normal. With the right device, the amount of heartbeats remaining can be measured.

When Hato Iijima accidentally walks in on Hatsu Takagi changing her clothes, he sees this device attached to her chest. Hatsu has resigned herself to an uneventful and isolated life to avoid elevating her heart rate. However, she expresses her true desire—to freely and wholeheartedly experience every second she has left. Recognizing her wish, Hato swears to help her enjoy life to the fullest and make her heart beat like crazy.

Makes you rethink about the value of time especially to those who are most limited by it. But you can make it worth it if you make it as these two did. Human beings live up until 60 years or roughly 25 thousand days and this two have 1/3 of that and someone lesser than the other.

I recommend Three Days ...

I loved the excellent use of space, which dictated the overall pacing and made the reading experience very enjoyable. This is a crucial aspect of manga.

I’ve been reading mostly one-shots since yesterday, and I have to say, this one made the most effective use of page space. The panel design was efficient and purposeful.

As for the characters, since it’s a one-shot, there isn’t much room for deep development. But even so, ...

Mixed Feelings
I am going to keep this review short this one-shot is pretty alright. The idea for this story is pretty cool. Pretty much this girl Takagi has a heart condition where she only has a set number of heartbeats left before she dies. Takagi leads a boring life to avoid raising her heartbeat until she meets the male lead Iijima. Through meeting Iijima she decides to let loose and enjoy her life. The concept for this story is very cool. The problem is that the story is very short. Since the story is only 1 chapter long we have to cram in all this character ...
