Saikano

Hoping to introduce a little bit of normalcy into their lives, Chise and her boyfriend, Shuji, flee their wartorn hometown. Hiding out in a small, out-of-the way village, the two lovebirds start living together in domestic bliss. The couple's newfound happiness is short-lived, however. It becomes obvious pretty quickly that the fragile teenager cannot run away from her martial responsibilities. Much to Chise's horror, her body has transformed into a weapon of mass destruction--and like it or not, she must fulfill her duty to kill.

With the war finally winding down, Chise begins to realize that her last chance for happiness is slipping away forever. Desperately trying to reclaim the humanity that she lost, the shy teenager makes one last bid for true love. But is it too late? Has Chise lost the opportunity to experience the most basic of all human emotions? Despite her awesome arsenal of military might, Chise has never been able to take control of her own personal life. One way or another, that's about to change.

When Chise is waiting to meet Shuji for a date instead of going on a combat mission, Chise finds out that Shuji has been with his former girlfriend.
