It’s a crime that the manga was condensed into three volumes. I enjoyed witnessing one of my favorite novels in an art style that I absolutely love, but Lost Stars is such a substantial story and so much of it was omitted due to the strict limitations of this particular publication. If given enough time and resources, the manga could have easily been expanded into eight volumes minimum. I don’t expect the manga version to be revisited. Honestly, it’s a miracle we’ve gotten a manga adaptation of Lost Stars in the first place. I still recommend the manga (after reading the full novel first), I just wish that we could have gotten more. Even still, I will proudly display the manga series on my shelf.
