Synopsis of Franchise
The human population has been severely diminished, and tomorrow may be the day of extinction. However, the unchanging seasonal cycle passes by as always, now in the chilly days between autumn and winter. To be exact, time hasn't stopped, but the world can't go to tomorrow.
All that remain are chronologists (researchers who study time) and a few children. Time travel is finally achieved, and the young boys and girls are planned to be sent to the past and to the future in order to save the human species from extinction.
School becomes dominated by lectures regarding time travel for the aptitude test. The results classify the students into those who will go to the past, those who will go to the future, and those who will remain.
the boys who jump to the past to decipher the mysteries of the world
the girls who jump to the future in hope of witnessing prosperity
and the girls who cannot do anything more than plow their farms
"Arata naru Sekai" is a story about these children who search for a bright tomorrow.

I don't really like the idea... I don't read manga or novels, so I'll have to force myself to read them to get the full story.
That comes for good, then. Reading is great.

But we'll miss one part of the story if there isn't any translation of the novel ...
Anyway I will watch for sure :)
