To, Aru Hi no Sugoku Fushigi

Also known as And the Strange and Funky Happenings One Day.

Status: Finished
Genres: Drama , Psychological , Sci-Fi , Slice of Life

A girl with near-nonexistent supernatural powers is actually just a normal kid, a potter who keeps breaking his own pottery, a man whose job is to put protective cling film on things yet struggles to protect what he treasures most, a boy who wakes up one day with a tag hanging from his ear labelled “Pull”, two people that are the only ones left on the planet and consider whether to risk meeting up in person, a group of planets return to their “home” orbit for a long overdue stardust reunion, and many, many more. Gorgeous and eclectic, these stories almost casually affirm what it means to live, and all ways of life.
