I Want to Love You Till Your Dying Day

Sheena Totsuki has never known a life without war. Raised in a secret academy where orphaned girls are trained as magical child soldiers, she views death as a routine part of daily existence. The facility operates on a brutal meritocracy: students who fail their lethal training standards do not get expelled; they are executed. Their deaths are marked only by somber prayer ceremonies rather than mourning. This grim backdrop sets the stage for Sheena's bond with Mimi Kagari, a fellow student whose survival seems impossible.

Mimi harbors a profound secret that upends the rules of their world. She is immortal, a fact that fundamentally alters the dynamic between the two girls. While the system demands emotional detachment and discards those who cannot kill, Mimi's inability to die forces Sheena to confront the value of life and the nature of loss. Their relationship becomes an act of rebellion against a regime designed to break them, balancing intense action with intimate character development focused on the restorative power of love.
