Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

The Elder Sister-Like One, Vol. 5 introduces Haru as a cherished figure in the local shopping district, serving as a beloved second big sister to Yuu and a (perhaps overly) familiar acquaintance for Chiyo. Yet, questions arise about her connection to Yuu's uncle and the source of Yuu's vague memories of knowing someone remarkably like her.

The bonds of blood and affection underpin the narrative, revealing the poignant truth about their shared past. Unveiling these secrets lays bare the tragic consequences that stem from their forbidden connections.
