Summary of Kimi wa Houkago Insomnia

It all started with the death of a member of the Astronomy Club. From this, the rumored spirit of the club came to life. The insomniac and grumpy Ganta Nakami meets the slightly rebellious but composed Isaki Magari in the Astronomy Club’s abandoned observatory. Magari wakes up startled and tries to flee the place, but a broken door prevents her, forcing them both to enter. The two forge an unlikely friendship that leads them to use the observatory as a safe place to bond. Kimi wa Houkago Insomnia follows insomnia-stricken Nakami and Magari’s time at the astronomical observatory as they help each other cope with insomnia and the lasting impact it has on college life.
