L to R (Western Style). Sixty-two years after human life on Earth was annihilated by rampaging alien invaders, the enigmatic Messenger O is sent back in time with a mission to unite humanity of past eras during the Second World War and ancient Japan, and even back to the dawn of the species itself to defeat the invasion before it begins. However, in a future shredded by war and genocide, love waits for O. Will O save humanity only to doom himself?"

Wow! I can't believe we both picked Japan for inspiration! Such an amazing box with Japanese treats, books, tea, bookmarks, and a gorgeous cup. 😍 My son is trying to convince me to let him read the tagged book first and eat the Pocky sticks. 😂 @kindergartenkat #SITS #StaycationInTimeSwap #MyLitsyDoppelganger 😃😃

@Chrissyreadit Thanks again for hosting such a fun swap!

kindergartenkat You'll have to let me know about the tagged book when you read it. I just looked up Japanese fantasy and that one seemed cool and you could travel through all kinds of time! We even chose mugs almost the same color! 5y
Chrissyreadit 🥰❤️🥰love it! 5y
Karisa @kindergartenkat We were definitely on the same page! Both books look great! I was just telling my husband the same thing about the mugs. Love it! The bookmarks are so pretty too. So much fun, @ChrissyReadit! 5y

I loved it. Wonderful retro-futurism elements. Lovely examination of cyborgs having feelings and a profound understanding of love, nicely paced, and intricate science-fiction exploration. I highly recommend this #ownvoices #Japanese novel to all fans of #SciFi! 4.75/5

I read 17 pages of this and then took a small nap to avoid a headache. I've been reading this since I woke up 1/2 an hour ago, and I'm LOVING it so far. So enjoyable!!
