To Every You I've Loved Before follows Koyomi Takasaki meeting Kazune Takigawa, who introduces herself as his girlfriend in the 85th parallel world. To Me, the One Who Loved You follows Koyomi Hidaka and Shiori Satō eloping to a parallel world where they are not going to be stepsiblings after their parents were set to marry each other.[1][2]
