Hirunaka No Ryuusei/Daytime Shooting Star – Quotes

A collection of all my favorite quotes from ‘Hirunaka No Ryuusei’. This Manga is my current obsession, so I tired to post every single quote that touched my heart, even a little bit. So there are quite a few of them and all the quotes won’t fit into this article alone, so I’ll probably finish updating all the quotes in part 2. 🙂

Don’t forget to check out my other articles on ‘Hirunaka No Ryuusei’ – Review & Gallery

Phew … that’s all for now. 🙂 I really had to spend a lot of time to collect & edit the pics, specially to write down the quotes word by word. So do credit me back whenever you’re using pics/quotes from this post. I’d feel inspired 🙂
