Since there isn't a single review for this extra chapter, I'll go ahead and write the first one.
This story takes place between the Shuichi's parents arc and the Everything goes to shit arc, with the tornados and the town transforming. In many ways, it's similar to Remina. Shuichi, while stargazing with his telescope one night, discovers a whole galaxy, which is spiral shaped. He immediately tells a professor about his accomplishment.
