Ashita no Atashi ni Yoroshiku ( 明日 の 私 に ヨ ロ シ ク , German "Hello my tomorrow me"; 2008, comic Kairakuten # 1)

Hanaharu Naruco got the idea for this story while watching the movie Memento .

Natsuko tells her childhood friend Haruhiko that she appears to have had sex with someone. However, since after an accident with a head injury, her memory only lasts for one day and is reset after each day, she cannot remember with whom. For this reason, she usually writes all events in a diary, although she does not write down this important event. She wonders if she lost her virginity to that person and tells Haruhiko that she is still virginal in heart because of her memory loss, whereupon Haruhiko asks her if she wants to lose her "virginity" to him. After sex, she chooses not to write this event down because if she read such a happy thing the next day, it would make her sad that she forgot. In fact, this cycle has been repeated more than a dozen times. One day Natsuko tells Haruhiko again that she apparently had sex with someone, and this time she knows it was him because he forgot his diary with her.

Kura ( 蔵 , German "warehouse"; 2003, comic Kairakuten # 8/9)

Kōsuke has a love affair with the maid Harue. Since his father has already decided to marry his cousin Kayoko, they both run away.

During the night he sees Harue being raped by several men and is knocked down. After he wakes up, Kayoko tells him that even after her escape, Harue kept returning to the house as his father's playmate and that he died while having sex with her. The father passed on not only to Harue, but also to his nieces Kayoko and Kyōko. Kayoko forces Kōsuke that he and his cousin Kyōko, who loves him, should beget the ancestor of the family. She also admits that she slowly poisoned his father. After the act, Kayoko sets fire to the house, with Kōsuke just barely able to save Harue but Kyōko. A few months later he lives happily with Harue, who is now pregnant. When entering the marriage in the family book, he is surprised to discover that Kayoko's and Kyōkos mother was his father's sister, which implies that he previously assumed that their father was his father's brother and that their parents were brother and sister. The story ends with Kōsuke meeting Kayoko and a pregnant Kyōko.

Misaki made ( 岬 ま で , German "up to the cliff"; 2003, comic Kairakuten # 10)
