Tokyo Magnitude 8. 0 Yuki to Hoshi No Suna (Take Shobo Bunko)

[Machine Translation] Every day is full of bad things... I wish this world would just break down. Mirai, a first-year junior high school student, thought this during her summer vacation in Odaiba, Tokyo. Mirai had been accompanied by her younger brother Yuki to see the robot exhibition, but while he was having fun, Mirai, in the midst of her rebellious phase, was bored. At that moment, the ground suddenly shook violently. Tokyo was hit by an unprecedented magnitude 8.0 trench-type earthquake. The connecting bridge collapsed and the Tokyo Tower collapsed. Mirai takes Yuuki's hand and heads for her home in Setagaya with the help of Mari, a bike delivery rider she met in Odaiba. Will the three of them make it home safely? Japan is an earthquake-prone country. What would happen if an M8.0 earthquake, which would exceed the Great Kanto Earthquake, were to hit Tokyo? Based on a vast amount of data and interviews with people involved, this moving spectacular novel depicts the fear of a major earthquake and the bonds between people under extreme conditions.
