Gin's manga / #classic(3)

As winter draws to a close, German boarding school student Thomas Werner dies one morning. He leaves behind a single letter addressed to his fellow student Juli that reads "Here is my love. Here is the sound of my heart." With his faith shaken to the core by the words, the scholarly Juli sinks to the depths of despair. His cynical roommate Oscar finds himself watching over Juli's fragile mental state while keeping his own feelings for Juli under wraps. Then new student Eric enters the school - and he has an uncanny resemblance to the deceased Thomas... Enter the world of a boy's boarding school in Germany where all will be revealed about the suffering and redemption that comes with love. Even today, this early work of Hagio Moto is still regarded as a brilliant masterpiece.

Marlee, an agent of the advanced civilization Central on the planet Blue Ear, finds himself on a mission to track down the troubadour Lagthorin. His mission leads him to the planet Corundum, where he finds the elusive musician and subsequently dies. Back at Central, he is regenerated into a new clone, Marlee Two, who sets off once more, drawn back to Lagthorin and her song. And so the strings of fate guide Marlee forward, inescapably intertwined with both the events on the planet Corundum and, 30,000 years across time, with the long-extinct race of the planet Silver Triangle. A 1-volume classic sci-fi manga.
