Six to seven years ago
The official introduction of Stage Nana places SIDE 2nd about six to seven years before the story of the first game. In the summer, 15-year-old Setsumi is still a regular outpatient living at home; During a hospital checkup, she met Himeko, who had previously worked as an assistant on the seventh floor. Himeko later became a patient in the same ward, and thus began a summer story between them.
Himeko and the people on the seventh floor
Character page introduction for the English project authorized by the original author: Himeko once worked as a volunteer helper on the seventh floor of a hospital, is cheerful and passionate about cars; Her younger sister Chihiro is also a helper on the seventh floor and is Himeko's sister. Himeko's friend Yuka Akishima also appears in the character list. Setsumi is the main character of this story, while SIDE 2nd tells another story about her experiences with those around her.
Written novel format
Stage Nana Hara Station explains that the work continues the concept of the first game "basically no screens," with the story mainly presented through text and backgrounds; The work uses NScripter. It is a reading work centered on the palliative care ward on the seventh floor of a hospital and its characters.
Release and compilation
The original site registration web version was released in May 2007. In 2010, the PSP collection "Narcissus ~If There Is Tomorrow~" included SIDE 2nd and the first and third titles, distributed by Kadokawa Shoten × HOBIBOX. Steam later offers the free collection of 'Narcissu 1st & 2nd', developed by stage-nana and published by Sekai Project.
Officially record the age of the family members
In the original character profile, Himeko is 23 years old, and her younger sister Chihiro is a 21-year-old university student; Himeko's longtime friend, Yuka Akishima, is also 23 years old. At 15, Setsumi still mainly had outpatient checkups, and her mother was cheerful and understanding. Himeko used to care for an 8-year-old girl on the seventh floor.
Helpers and residents on the seventh floor
The author placed 7F in the hospice ward of a Catholic hospital, where residents have unique rules for passing down the ward. Himeko goes from volunteering helper to patient, while Chihiro continues to provide volunteer assistance; Himeko's old relationship with that girl makes the changing identities of helpers and those cared for an important link in this story.
