Voices of a Distant Star: Words of Love/Across the Stars
Hoshi no Koe: Ai no Kotoba/Hoshi wo Koeru
It's 2046, and Mikako Nagamine and Noboru Terao are middle school classmates with an unspoken crush on each other. But Mikako has a secret: she's been recruited into the UN Space Force. Instead of heading to high school like a normal teenager, she's boarding the spacecraft Lysithea to hunt for an alien species called the Tarsians. As the ship travels deeper into the solar system, their connection stretches across impossible distances. Text messages that once arrived instantly now take hours, then days, then weeks to reach Earth. For Noboru back home, time moves normally—he goes through high school, grows up, lives his life. But he never quite lets go of Mikako's voice on the other end of that phone. This novel adaptation by Arata Kanou captures the melancholy and nostalgia of the acclaimed OVA directed by Makoto Shinkai—a story about love tested by the vast emptiness of space and the cruel passage of time.
