Summary

Lundi is a young boy who lives with his aunt and uncle in Switzerland in the early 1930s. One day while walking around the Alps, Lundi finds a little girl who is the only survivor of a plane crash and has lost all her memories. She is named Jeudi by his uncle and both of them are raised together. As they grow up together, Jeudi and Lundi develop a deep friendship for each other. A few years later Jeudi wants to find her past. Her only clue is a song that she is constantly hearing in her head, a song called Alpen Rose. At the time of World War II, Jeudi and Lundi set on a journey to discover Jeudi's past and in the process learn the depth of the love they have for each other.

Characters

  • Lundi (means Monday in French)

Full name, Lundi Courtot. A Swiss young man who lives not too far from the Alps with his aunt and uncle. As a little kid, he found a girl around his age and her pet cockatoo lying in a field of flowers, and convinced his aunt and uncle to take her in. After an incident with Count George Germont in which he and Printemps are almost shot by him, and then Jeudi is taken to the Count's castle by force, he helps her escape and they must flee their village. This also gives them the chance to both get hitched and to start investigating Jeudi's strange past.

  • Jeudi (means Thursday in French)

She was found amnesiac and unconscious by Lundi, who gave her the name "Jeudi". She was subsequently taken in by a shopkeeper (manga) or nursing school (anime). At age 13, Jeudi catches the eye of Count Germont when she protect Lundi and Printemps, and he takes her by force to his castle to make her his concubine. Lundi comes to her rescue and they flee to the town of Bern, where they realize that this is the chance to look for Jeudi's family—specially after they begin to have leads about her true identity.

  • Printemps (means spring in French) a cockatoo

Jeudi's pet, who was with her ever since before the fateful accident that brought her to Lundi's life
