Before Your Memory Fades by Toshikazu Kawaguchi

Return to the magical café where time travel exists—but only for a brief moment—in Before Your Memory Fades, a deeply emotional installment in the Before the Coffee Gets Cold universe by Toshikazu Kawaguchi.

Inside a quiet café in Japan, customers can travel back in time under strict rules: they must sit in a specific seat, cannot change the present, and must return before their coffee gets cold. Despite these limits, each journey offers a powerful opportunity to reconnect with lost loved ones, express unspoken feelings, and confront lingering regrets.

In this installment, the stories explore memory, fading connections, and the emotional weight of time itself. Each character’s journey reveals how even moments that cannot change the present can still transform the heart.
