Despite Haru's attitude, Hana finds herself being drawn to his demeanor – but can she get close to someone who she can't actually touch? In the relaxing atmosphere of Haru Hana, anything can happen.

Manga Review: Tegami Bachi (Letter Bee), Volume 2
A man-made star illuminates only part of the world of Amberground. Split into three different caste systems, only Letter Bees (and a few other government agencies) can pass between the sections. Akatsuki is in the center, and is illuminated completely by the star/sun; it is also strictly regulated by the government as to who can enter. Then there's Yuusari, where it is mostly twilight, and where the middle class lives. The lowest class lives in the complete night time of Yodaka, where the dangerous creatures, Gaichuu, are found in great numbers.
