But as if by a twist of fate, he ends up getting closer to Sei… .


Whenever Erino is worried and wants to cry, Sei pops out from the window or the hallway and offers his own comfort, sometimes with a joke, sometimes with a sweet snack, and sometimes with mature advice.


From the heart-fluttering points hidden throughout his words and actions to the bonus episode that reveals Sei's true feelings, to the surprising twist regarding the 'Confession Song Project'...
Readers who enjoyed Volume 1 will find themselves drawn into the richer fun, and those who have experienced a first love that makes them feel like they are about to burst into tears without a reason will find themselves deeply immersed in this 'heart-pounding romance that will hit you in the heart.'

Into the book
It's chilling to think what Nomiya-senpai will do next at the graduation ceremony in a month and a half.
I can't even imagine what kind of things they're going to do.
In the case of Senior Ninomiya, what makes it especially troublesome is that he has absolutely no intention of getting noticed or of doing anything bad.
Seniors are unpredictable because they just do it because they want to.
A free spirit for whom neither rules nor common sense apply.
We've talked about this a few times now, and every time I think about it.
This person and I were born on different stars.
--- p.22

For me, who has never had much trouble with studying or exercising, dating and love are the only areas where I am not very good.
It's not that I hate love stories.
I get excited when I hear stories about cool guys, and I find it cute when I hear stories about my friends' unrequited loves.
I have a pretty good sense of who my friends like or are interested in.
But it feels really awkward to tell my story.
I've never liked anyone before and I've only dated people because they confessed to me that they liked me, so it can't be helped.
Besides, we never dated for a long time because we broke up every time after a few months.
--- p.49

I don't want eternal love.
But I want to share that feeling of happiness with someone, even if it's just for a moment.
Like two friends.
--- p.62

'The right thing to say is, after all, correct logic, so it's only natural that it's correct.'

The voice of my senior who had said that earlier lingered in my ears and my heart tightened.
What is this feeling?
A ticklish feeling like something is flapping its wings in my chest.
--- pp.126~127

Obviously, I am happy now.
Without a doubt.
Because having a senior come to school means we can continue our exchange diary.
Maybe the senior is also coming to school because of the exchange diary.
Maybe that's just me interpreting it too well.
But if there is some other purpose, it is okay to exchange notes while you are at it.
If I could keep writing the exchange diary.
If I could meet my senior.
--- p.166

“Principles and right words are right.
But the one who puts it into words is Erino-chan, so if people don't like it when they hear it, it's because of Erino-chan."

The senior repeated what he had said earlier.

“If I were to add my thoughts here, it would be, ‘What you said is right, but Erino-chan may have misunderstood her friend because she couldn’t express it all in words.
Erino-chan is very affectionate and likes everyone very much.'
“Look, listen to it, what’s the difference?”
--- p.185

“I don’t know if it’s possible for everyone to confess or not, but I just wanted to feel relieved.
“Isn’t worrying about what to do something because you want to do it?”
--- p.266

I don't want to confess or anything like that.
I don't want to get hurt.
I'm scared.
It's no use.
But I can't even make up my mind not to confess.
Once a senior graduates, there is no connection between me and my senior.
Whether you keep your heart hidden or not.

“I really hate how I look right now….”

It feels like I'm stuck in the dark, in the middle of the night.

therefore.
I put the exchange diary and handkerchief I was holding back into my pocket.


“I want to like you.”
--- p.271

Back with a more exciting story
The Second Story of "A Secret I Want to Tell"


In 2023, the thrilling "Secret I Want to Tell" returns with a second, more powerful story.
If the first book was a story that started from a 'confession accident' where the person you like was mistaken, the second book provides hints here and there, but keeps the 'person you are confessing to' a secret until the very end, giving you another kind of fun of solving a puzzle.


"Secrets I Want to Tell Vol. 2", starring Matsumoto Erino, the best friend of the first volume's female protagonist, Nozomi Kuroda, is a story about the innocent and heartbreaking first love between a prickly perfectionist high school girl who is exemplary in everything she does and doesn't mince words, and Sei Ninomiya, a free-spirited, handsome high school boy who expresses his feelings better through song and drawing than through words.
In particular, since this book is about a secret project in which the male protagonist writes a song to confess to the person he likes, it is richer in visual and auditory romantic elements than the first book.


The male protagonist's words and actions, which seem to be casually thrown in but also hit the nail on the head, make the character even more attractive, and the dramatic change in the relationship between the male and female protagonists, who have polar opposite personalities, as they come to understand each other, makes the excitement index even higher than in the first book.
It will be a great treat for fans who have been waiting for the sequel to the 'Secret I Want to Tell' series.

You want me to edit these cringey lyrics?
But I feel strangely drawn to it and can't refuse it...?
“Then, teach me.
“What is love?”


One day, Erino accidentally picks up a notebook that fell on the floor.
I looked inside to find the owner, and what is this?
There is a piece of writing that is so heartbreaking that it makes you shiver.
Even though the words are used incorrectly and it looks sloppy at first glance, Erino's heart flutters unusually at the writing that faithfully conveys her true feelings of liking someone.
Although he is a person whose face and name he does not know, he wants to cheer up his heart, so he corrects his mistakes and helps him find his owner, but he receives an unexpected reply.


“If it’s okay, can you look at other parts too?
“I think it would be helpful if you could tell me your thoughts from a woman’s perspective.” - From the text

Erino is troubled by the unexpected request, but because she wants to keep talking, the two eventually begin exchanging diaries.
Erino hears the man's plan to confess his feelings by writing lyrics, and she reflects on the relationships she has had.


'I always dated someone who confessed first, but I was rejected every time.
Even though I was hurt, I pretended to be cool and broke up with her without even asking why.
"Have you ever, like that kid, ever loved someone so freely, without caring about the consequences? Is loving someone really this difficult?" With such thoughts, Erino loses her composure and speaks her mind.
“I’m jealous.
I want to love like you.
Teach me too.
“What is love?”

The identity of ‘that man’ is the troublemaker senior…
The moment I thought, "I'm screwed!"
My first love started without me knowing


Oh my.
But the 'man' in the exchange diary is 'Ninomiya Sei', a senior who usually acts wild at school.
Erino is so embarrassed that she feels like she's about to go crazy over the thought of saying something so out of character to her senior, whom she believed lived in a completely different world from her.
You must stop the exchange diary without revealing your identity.
However, contrary to his resolve, he cannot stop keeping the exchange diary and becomes closer to Sei.


Erino thought Sei was just a person who played around without thinking, but she got to see a mature and deep side to him.
Erino, who has been secretly hurt by the words of people who easily criticize her for only speaking the truth without considering other people's feelings and for being so smart, begins to listen carefully to Sei's advice that she should know how to put her heart into speaking the truth depending on the person, and slowly becomes accustomed to Sei's comforting way of popping out from somewhere and giving her a sweet snack to cheer her up whenever she is having a hard time.


So, without even knowing it, you start your first love… .
But from what I found out through the exchange diary, Sei already likes someone…!

“I hid my name and turned away from my heart,
I wanted to say it in the end.
“My whole world is you.”


From the moment she admitted that she liked Sei, Erino realized that her world had become entirely filled with Sei.
When she is with Sei, who smiles innocently, Erino's world turns green like a fresh leaf, and when she thinks about Sei liking someone, her heart turns ashen with jealousy of a person she doesn't even know, and yet, she is excited by Sei's affection that makes her mistaken, and Erino's world stays somewhere between orange and pink twelve times a day.
Erino's world, which was almost colorless because she was perfect and flawless in everything but didn't know how to share her feelings, finally changes and becomes colorful through Sei.

But, no matter what, the scene where this world is completely dyed pink is when Sei sings a song full of his true feelings without any accompaniment until his throat is hoarse.

The moment Sei's feelings are conveyed through melody and lyrics, a new world, not just Erino's, but the two of them, unfolds.
A new world of love, bathed in beautiful, dreamy colors you've never seen before.
And that too, very clearly.


The completion of the so-called 'heart-bombing romance' that will make your heart pound throughout the book, 《Secrets I Want to Tell Vol. 2》.
Readers who were excited throughout the first volume should absolutely not miss the second volume, which will infinitely increase their excitement cells.

ps.
There's also a special bonus episode that will reveal a surprising twist about the 'Confession Song Project' and Sei's true feelings, so don't miss out on this fun!
