Do you wish for tomorrow? |
 |
Crossing 25 is a 2001 Takemura Sessyu Science Fiction manga.
Akada is your average guy. One day, a girl in his grade named Shiina takes him to a mysterious place and asks him confusing questions about the future and past. Akada refuses her and runs. Shiina's friend Natsumi explains to Akada their situation. She wants him to help fight the ones who want to stop tomorrow from happening. Akada first says he won't help because the problem has nothing to do with him. He eventually changes his mind.
