🇯🇵 Japanese Title:
彼も見ていた
Kare mo Miteita
The One Who Saw It Too
🎯 Theme:
Across the globe—in a quiet rooftop lab in Argentina, a teen named Leo scans the sky each night, trying to capture meteor shadows and rare auroras.
He thought the sky messages were tricks of light… until one night, a shimmering word cut across the clouds:
「見てるよ」 — “I see you.”
And then… his computer pinged with a mirror drift pattern.
The same frequency Aika once wrote about in her papers.
The same code the club just transmitted.
Leo follows the trail online—finding Aika’s name buried in a research blog last updated 5 years ago.
He sends a message back—encrypted, hopeful:
“If this is real… I think we’re working on the same sky.”
Back in Japan, Hana and Nao receive it.
Aika’s idea has reached another dreamer.
📍 Setting:
- Rooftop observatory above Buenos Aires
- Notebook filled with sky photos and light angles
- Bilingual email between Leo and the team
- Zoomed-out map of Earth with two blinking points connected by a line
