Toki o Kakeru Shōjo (時をかける少女, "The Little Girl Who Conquered Time") is a Japanese novel written by Yasutaka Tsutsui. It tells the story of Kazuko Yoshiyama, a girl who accidentally acquires the ability to travel through time.
The novel was serialized in the youth magazines Chu-3 Course and Kou-1 Course, from November 1965 to May 1966. The novel has been adapted many times, notably as a television series in 1972 and a film in 1983. It also inspired the 2006 Japanese animated feature film The Girl Who Leapt Through Time.
Plot summary
Kazuko Yoshiyama a third-year junior high school student is cleaning the school science lab with her classmates Kazuo Fukamachi and Gorō Asakura, when she smells a lavender-like scent and faints. After three days, strange events transpire around Kazuko, including the burning of Gorō's house after an earthquake. The next morning, at the exact moment of a car accident, Kazuko is transported 24 hours into the past.
She relives the day and relates her strange experience to Kazuo and Gorō. They don't believe her at first, but they are convinced when she accurately predicts the earthquake and ensuing fire. Fukushima, their science teacher, explains Kazuko's new ability is called "teleportation" and "time-leap", and to solve the riddle of her power she must leap back four days.
Finally, Kazuko's determination enables her to make the leap. Back in the science room she meets a mysterious man who has assumed her friend Kazuo's identity. He is really "Ken Sogoru", a time-traveler from AD 2660. His intersection with the girl's life is the accidental effect of a 'time-leaping' drug. Ken remains for a month and Kazuko falls in love with him. When he leaves, he erases all memories of himself from everyone he's met, including Kazuko. As the book ends Kazuko has the faint memory of somebody promising to meet her again every time she smells lavender.
Publication history
The novel was first serialized in the Japanese youth magazines Chu-3 Course and Kō-1 Course, from November 1965 to May 1966, and has been regularly re-edited in Japan ever since, notably in 1976 (ISBN 4-04-130510-1), in 1997 for the release of the second film (ISBN 4-89-456306-1), and in a new version in 2006 for the release of the animated film, including two more stories: Akume no shinsô and Hateshinaki tagen uchû (ISBN 4-04-130521-7).
