[[The Other Wiki]] tells us that "'''''Living for the Day After Tomorrow''''' (あさっての方向。, ''Asatte no Hōkō'') is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by [[J-ta Yamada]]. The manga was serialized in Mag Garden's magazine Comic Blade Masamune between March 3, 2005 and June 15, 2007"
Iokawa Karada is a little girl who lives with her older sort-of brother, Hiro. Nogami Shouko is Hiro's ex-girlfriend, whom he unexpectedly left behind. When Shouko is unexpectedly reunited with Hiro, the girls come into conflict, leading to hurt feelings all around. Still upset, they both find themselves together at a small shrine housing a stone that, according to local legend, will grant wishes.
Line 6 ⟶ 8:
They didn't expect it to actually work. Karada is suddenly now an adult, and Shouko is a child. Suddenly nobody recognizes them, they don't have any clothes that fit (Shouko even needs new glasses), and Karada has to deal with being an adult, all while Hiro and friends are in a panic about Karada's sudden "disappearance."
