No. 6 Reunited #4 [Light Novel]

A crisis closes in on Shion's peaceful morning. As Shion and Nezumi discuss the current state of NO.6 as it moves toward reconstruction, Shion becomes aware of the "darkness" within himself. This is the story of an intense struggle by earnest young men to build a new city from the rubble of the fallen utopia! It portrays the fateful bond between Nezumi and Shion as both struggle to come to terms with the changes within themselves. Nogizaka46's Moeka Yada highly recommends it! "Even the 14-year gap we spent waiting has become a precious treasure. The 'reunion' we longed and waited for is finally here." The promotional video featuring Yuki Kaji, who voices Shion in the "NO.6" anime, is generating major buzz with over 2 million views! With more than 2.4 million copies in the series, this is a masterpiece of dystopian fiction that goes beyond the friendship of two boys!

Shion and Nezumi live in a world where the global environment has been devastated by repeated wars. Shion, a boy raised as one of the elite of "NO.6," and Nezumi, a mysterious boy who lives in the "West Block," a slum district outside "NO.6," brought down the corrupt and false utopia. Can the two rebuild a new world? This fourth volume will determine the fate and future of these two fiercely earnest young men. Comments from readers of the "NO.6" series: "Whenever I feel like I want to die, I remember Nezumi's words. Don't run away -- keep moving forward! Face reality! No matter how painful reality may be, I want to become someone who can still find light." "I read it on nights when I feel like crying. What do you want to be? I want to keep asking myself what I can do and keep moving forward." A message from Atsuko Asano: I heard a voice. It was Nezumi's voice. "I decide for myself where I live and where I die. I decide, not you. I'd appreciate it if you'd stop meddling." I see. So they have already met and begun to weave their destinies together. If so, then just once more, truly just once more, let me reach out to them. Let me touch their lives with these hands. Let me fight as the author of "NO.6." Let me challenge those boys I have longed for so deeply. Right now, that is all I can think about. After 14 years, I am bringing "NO.6" to you once again.
