Warning[s]: Overall spoilers for the series.
#01 - Ring
All she wanted was for him to give him a ring, and instead he gave her a stake to the heart.
#02 - Hero
Yuuki was the hero of the story... did that make her a villain of some sort?
#03 - Memory
She remembers the first time he looks at her, acknowledging her existance, and for some reason it's one of her happiest memories.
#04 - Box
In a small little box in her bedroom, Megumi keeps small memories from Natsuno which no one could ever find, and after that fateful day they were forever forgotten.
#05 - Run
Part of her wanted to run to the city, part of her wanted to run to Natsuno's side.
#06 - Hurricane
She was swift and deadly, just like a hurricane.
#07 - Wings
He didn't need wings to fly to her heart, although unvoluntarily.
#08 - Cold
Megumi looked the same, and at the same time very different; the main difference was her eyes, which now looked cold and icy like he had never seen.
#09 - Red
She loved Natsuno, but when others came near him all she could see was red, and she forgets she may hurt him too.
#10 - Drink
A nice, quiet dinner, a couple of drinks, perhaps a kiss to carry his warmth home... her dreams were big, but reality was harsh and she was to face it sooner or later; and bury those dreams for once and for all.
#11 - Midnight
Every midnight she was watching him through the window, even after her death.
#12 - Temptation
Megumi found it somewhat insulting that the only aspect of her new (more revealing) look he focused on was her fangs.
#13 - View
Her new outfit allowed him a full view of her cleavage, but all he was interested in was the fangs on her mouth, and how horribly real they looked.
#14 - Music
It took her two weeks to conclude that Yuuki didn't have any interest in music, so that ruled out talking about music in common to begin a conversation.
#15 - Silk
Her silky dress is captivating to most of the villagers, but unfortunately it didn't grant her a single stare from Natsuno, so she considered the plan a failure.
#16 - Cover
He covers himself with the blanket, as if that would send the memory of the dead girl away.
#17 - Promise
Megumi stared at the window and promised to herself that, one day, Natsuno would open that window to her and invite her in.
#18 - Dream
She dreams of being with him; he dreams of killing her.
#19 - Candle
A single candle is lit in the temple as Megumi gets on her knees and prays for another chance with Yuuki.
#20 - Talent
Apparently, she had a natural talent for making him ignore her.
#21 - Silence
They both stood in silence for what seemed like hours, but the moment he looked at her was the moment she knew it was a step forward.
#22 - Journey
Their adventure ended before it could begin.
#23 - Fire
Her fiery passion towards him was more than a little scary.
#24 - Strength
She found strength when she looked at him.
#25 - Mask
Megumi wore a mask of hatred towards the town to hide out just how hurt she was.
#26 - Ice
Her look was hot like the sun; her smirk as cold as ice.
#27 - Fall
She knew she had fallen in love with him the very moment she saw him.
#28 - Forgotten
It was evident to Megumi that he had forgotten all about her.
#29 - Dance
Megumi watched the villagers dance with disgust, but internally all she wished was for Yuuki to take her dancing with them.
#30 - Body
Her body was just as cold as her personality towards anyone but Natsuno.
#31 - Sacred
Was it insane that she considered him sacred?
#32 - Farewells
It was sad that she never got the chance to say goodbye.
#33 - World
All she wanted was to see the world, but deep down she knew it would be impossible for the likes of her.
#34 - Formal
Shimizu's funeral was one of the rare times for which he dressed formally.
#35 - Fever
In his feverish dreams, he thought he saw Megumi accompanying Tohru that night, crying as she watched Natsuno bleed.
#36 - Laugh
Oh, how much she wanted to just laugh and spend the time with him.
#37 - Lies
Megumi never thought lies could hurt, until Yuuki lied to her.
#38 - Forever
Once he came back, Megumi thought with a smile, they would be forever together, literally.
#39 - Overwhelmed
Even after everything, Natsuno still found it hard to believe that innocent rose-haired girl could harm so many people.
#40 - Whisper
She leaned towards him and whispered her love; he opened his eyes and was alone.
#41 - Wait
Megumi was growing tired of waiting for him to notice her, but that didn't mean she was going to give trying.
#42 - Talk
It was easier for her to come back to life than to start a conversation with Natsuno Yuuki.
#43 - Search
She knew she would never find someone like him in the entire village; he was different, and that was certainly something she liked.
#44 - Hope
Megumi wonders if there's any hope left for her.
#45 - Eclipse
Her darkness tended to eclipse his light.
#46 - Gravity
He was still shocked about how her hair seemed to ignore the law of gravity (after hanging out with Kaori, though, it wasn't so rstrangere).
#47 - Highway
Megumi headed towards the highway to the city on her own, wondering if Natsuno would've ran away with her.
#48 - Unknown
Her destination was unknown, yet following Natsuno she knew she'd never be wrong.
#49 - Lock
He locked the door on her face before he could see the tears in her eyes.
#50 - Breathe
She didn't breath anymore; the moment she learnt that fact, she should've known being with Natsuno would be impossible.
