Looking for the Full Moon
At 12, Mitsuki Kouyama is determined to become a professional singer, but a diagnosis of throat cancer threatens that future. Shortly afterward, she encounters Meroko Yui and Takuto Kira, two angels of death from the shinigami pair Negi Ramen. They tell her she has one year to live, turning her dream into a race against time.
Rather than surrendering to despair, Mitsuki uses the time she has to pursue music with determination. Romance, comedy, and emotionally serious ideas about love, loss, difficult choices, and fate share the same story, giving the series a balance of bright ambition and genuine sorrow. Her path includes both success and failure, while Meroko and Takuto help her face what lies ahead.
