Synopsis for Natsu e no Tunnel, Sayonara no Deguchi

Kaoru Tono heard a rumour: The laws of space and time mean nothing to the Urashima Tunnel. If you find it, go through the tunnel and you’ll find your heart’s desire on the other side…in exchange for years of your own life. The night Kaoru finds herself in front of a tunnel that looks suspiciously like the one described in the rumor, she finds herself thinking about Karen, the sister he lost in an accident five years ago. To Kaoru’s surprise, she has been followed by new transfer student Anzu Hanaki, who promises to help her experiment with the mysterious tunnel, but what does she want from Kaoru in return? And what will he have left to give, after the tunnel has finished him?
