The first story in the collection, Futaribocchi no Ever After, has been omitted from the English version. This collection of short stories contains the following: The Frog Prince features a young man named Yui Nishino who has remarkable features. However, he feels that his good looks are more of a curse rather than a blessing because everyone close to him is jealous of his beauty. While working as a museum mascot, he spots one of his classmates, who is into prehistoric animals. Will he be the one to discover Yui's inner beauty? In The World's End, Shin is on a terraforming mission and keeps in contact with Rukiya, an engineer who is on Earth. Shin feels quite lonesome in outer space, but luckily for him, he has a highly developed A.I. to keep him company. Shin's mission is just about over and when he's scheduled to return to Earth, Rukiya has some terrible news for him.
