- Shirogane Takeru-sama,
- I caused a lot of trouble for you, Shirogane, but thank you for always taking me seriously.
- Thanks to you being so nosy, I've grown a lot as a person.
- At first I thought the ideals you pursued were hopelessly pure.
- You were definitely an incredible Eishi, Shirogane, but I thought your mind was lacking.
- But no matter what happened to you, you always faced it without getting discouraged. Seeing you like that started to make me feel ashamed of myself.
- And I realized that feeling ashamed of my father and hating society was really just me running away from my problems.
- I became convinced that I really hadn't been thinking about anyone but myself.
- I'll try to give everything I have for others for my own sake, the way you do.
- It wasn't for very long, but I'm glad I was able to make that decision and take action on it at the end of my life.
- As thanks, I'll tell you something interesting.
- I love you, Shirogane.
- I'm madly in love with you.
- I'm not sure when I started feeling this way myself.
- But at some point I realized I was always thinking about you, Shirogane.
- I realized my eyes would always follow you.
- I was really happy on days when you didn't go on your special mission and we could train together.
- I always wanted to sit next to you in the PX.
- But Kagami is better suited to you.
- I get jealous easily, so come alone when you visit the cherry trees.
- Goodbye.
- The yakisoba bread was delicious.

- Shirogane Takeru-sama,
- Takeru-san, thank you so much.
- I learned a lot from you, Takeru-san.
- So I'm very grateful to you. And I respect you a lot.
- A lot's happened since I met you two months ago.
- A lot of things that forced me to think hard about what I really believed in.
- At the time, Takeru-san, your way of thinking was probably my ideal.
- You have to make your dreams happen yourself, no matter how painful and discouraging it gets.
- Nothing can be accomplished by running away from pain, or without causing someone else pain.
- My dream is still for everyone to be happy.
- I want everyone I love, everyone in the world to smile happily together.
- That dream won't change.
- That's why I will make Operation Cherry Blossom succeed.\p In order to make that dream a reality, I have to work with everyone to open up a path.
- By the time you read this letter, Takeru-san, I'll have given my life for it.
- But I believe you reading this letter, Takeru-san, is proof that the world has taken its first huge step toward peace.
- I said I wouldn't write anything, but I am anyway, because I'm weak.
- After all, I'm sure you aren't writing anything, Takeru-san.
- 1st Lt. Hayase will probably want even more push-ups or sit-ups from me, but I want to go see the others with my head held high.
- I plan on telling them I did my very best.
- Takeru-san, I don't think the war's going to end anytime soon,\p but please find happiness someday.
- Please make Kagami-san happy too.
- And lastly, please forgive me for showing you my weakness.
- I was jealous of Kagami-san because you loved her and not me, Takeru-san.
- Goodbye.

- Shirogane Takeru-sama,
- I'm sure you'd hate a letter full of formalities.
- So I'll write down my honest feelings.
- First, I apologize for when I pressured you to write a will.
- Given your way of thinking, it couldn't have felt right, especially coming from someone who didn't want to write one herself.//did she not write it during coup d'etat? I can't remember. ~IX
- But I still wanted to tell you how thankful I was.
- It's been a little over two months since I met you.
- But you've taught me so many things I can't sum them up all at once.
- You did everything better than average and had an excellent mind. I couldn't help but trust you.
- On the other hand, I left my leadership position after being commissioned, and talking to our commanding officers has made me realize how narrow-minded I was.
- I even felt relieved at not being the leader of a unit anymore.
- Originally I wanted to fight for that position, but when it happened I felt calm.
- So when I was ordered to act as the unit commander during Operation Cherry Blossom, I honestly felt like the pressure was going to crush me.
- But if I ran away from it, then I'd be turning by backs on you and everyone in this unit who helped me grow.
- Now that I think that, I'll put everything I have into it, in order to improve myself.
- Please watch me.
- My only regret is that by the time you read this letter, I'll have already died in battle.
- It's very unfortunate that I won't get to hear what you think of it.
- Sgt. Jinguuji and Capt. Isumi will probably give me an earful, so if you feel like it, please visit the cherry trees at the front gate.
- Finally,
- Please forgive me for being cowardly, selfish and weak enough to write this.
- I loved you.
- Even after I learned about Kagami, I was never able to get over you.
- I pray that you and Kagami find happiness.

- Shirogane Takeru-sama,
- I'm not good at writing respectfully, so I'll do this in my usual lighthearted style.
- I was shocked at first when you treated me like a guy, but I really am happy that I got to meet you, Takeru.
- You're an amazing person who can do anything.
- But I don't think you're as omnipotent as everyone says you are.
- You've been worrying your head off about problems of your own, and you must have gone through a lot of painful things.
- And yet everyone still expects so much of you. I think it's extraordinary that you keep rising to meet those expectations.
- And I think that's what's most amazing.
- Seeing you try so hard, Takeru, supported me and spurred me onward.
- I was able to overcome all the sad and painful things that happened because you were there, Takeru.
- Thank you so much. I really respect that part of you, Takeru.
- I'm sure everyone else in the unit felt the same way.
- Ever since Capt. Isumi told me to work on it, I've been trying to fix my habit of ignoring what everyone else is doing.
- It wasn't for very long, but I think I can see a lot more now because of it.
- I wanted to do a lot more so I could surprise you, Takeru, but unfortunately I won't be able to.
- I wanted to at least change your impression of me to something other than a weird girl who looks like a guy, but as long as you have memories of me, I guess that's okay.
- Finally, there's one last thing I want to tell you, Takeru.
- This will be the last time you have to put up with my antics, so bear with it.
- I've been hiding it for a long time, but I love you, Takeru.
- As a girl of course.
- Sorry for telling you in such an unfair way.
- But please forgive me for loving you, Takeru.
- This might sound weird right after that, but make Sumika-san happy.
- You finally got to see her again, so you'd better do it.
- Goodbye.
