Harukanaru Toki no Naka de 5 Kazahanaki (遙かなる時空の中で5 風花記; literally: "Within a Distant Time 5: Dancing Snow Chronicle") is the direct sequel to Harukanaru Toki no Naka de 5. Like its predecessor, Unmei no Labyrinth, it introduces a new setting and shortens the entire story to six chapters.

Plot[]

The protagonist erases her previous adventure to rewrite the parallel world's past, believing she has successfully saved everyone. Returning to Edo in December 1864, she faces tyrannical people and a rift between shoguns. Despite changing knowledge, she aims to save the past, present, and future by defeating the White Dragon before her life and body are consumed.
