Yeeouch. Spring of drowned young girl enforces the 'young' part as well.
Hmmm... sad, but very realistic. 

Good work.

If Akane were 16, or seventeen when the manga ended last year, wouldn't
it be more like 1979 or 1980? It's even earlier if you count from the
beginning of the manga. Ahh... time knows no boundaries when Takahashi is
concerned.
