I’d definitely add this one to Ito’s “cosmical” genre of his work. Focused on the universe, including galaxies, planets, and the end of the world/humanity. Using those characteristics he develops the story of the main character that has to go through these unstoppable situations. Using those descriptions I’d compare it to Sensor (also a work of Ito’s) for containing the same characteristics in the story. If you’ve read Sensor before, I hope that my review gives you an idea of how Remina looks like. Definitely not for me, but I’ll acknowledge that it’s because of my taste and not the quality of the work.
