These six shorts do the thing the main series kept almost doing: they stop hedging. Tucked after episodes 1, 2, 3, 4, 9 and 12 on AbemaTV, they're the manga pages Doga Kobo couldn't fit into twelve episodes, and they're the reason Shinako's choices stop reading as cruelty and start reading as grief. Watch them in order and Rikuo's drift, Haru's stubbornness and Rou's whole existence snap into a shape the broadcast cut left blurry. The ending in particular goes from ambiguous to earned once you've seen what these scraps quietly hand you. They are not standalone and they will mean nothing without the show, which is the point. If you finished the series feeling like something got left on the cutting room floor, you were right, and it's here.

Six short post-credit scenes adapt manga material that the main Yesterday wo Utatte series left out. They streamed only on AbemaTV, airing after episodes 1, 2, 3, 4, 9 and 12. Shinako Morinome passes the quietest hours of each night remembering a friend who has died. Meanwhile, Rikuo Uozumi's dull days pick up some color thanks to the cheerful Haru Nonaka. Rikuo acts as if he does not care, but he is quietly grateful for the way Haru is changing his life. The extras are a drama and slice-of-life romance.
