I Want to Eat Your Pancreas (Kimi no Suizou wo Tabetai) is a novel by Yoru Sumino, published by Futabasha in June 2015. A live action film adaptation of the novel was released in August 2017 under the title Let Me Eat Your Pancreas. An anime film adaptation was released in 2018 by Studio VOLN and a manga adaptation was published by Futabasha between August 2016 and May 2017.Despite its creepy name, I Want to Eat Your Pancreas is actually a bittersweet Romance. The narrator is initially referred to as "I" while his real name remains a secret for much of the narrative. He finds a book with the title Disease Coexistence Journal, which belongs to his High School classmate Sakura Yamauchi, and learns that Sakura is diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, leaving only a year to survive. After that meeting, these two people who never talked to each other before begin to spend their remaining time together, and Sakura's influence on the protagonist starts to slowly change him for the better. This newfound relationship, however, does not go unnoticed by those around them, not least Sakura's wary best friend Kyoko.A sequel novel, To My Father and to Someone in My Memories (Chichi to Tsuioku no Dareka ni) was given out in certain theatres with the animated film's release in 2018, and tells the story of the protagonist's daughter Fuyumi as she finds out about the story of her father and Sakura.

Adaptation Expansion: The live action film includes a segment from whole cloth set 12 years later showing Sakura's continued influence on the lives of those around her so long after her death. Conversely, the animated film includes a scene where Sakura and the protagonist watch a fireworks display, which is absent in the book.

comment
Spiritual Successor: A number of reviewers and viewers, including IGN and this one, (spoilers!) draw comparisons between this and Your Lie in April, with both involving an energetic Ill Girl secretly afraid of her mortality who draws a troubled, withdrawn male protagonist out of his shell. Both female protagonists die with unfulfilled promises to the male protagonists. Both works also draw heavily on Cherry Blossoms imagery and its connotations regarding the transience of life and love.

Manic Pixie Dream Girl: A Reconstruction. The narrator becomes part of her life, but not the center of it. Sakura has a family, other friends she spends time with, and a best friend who naturally sees the narrator as an interloper. She needs something from him — a friend who won't overreact to her illness. And, it develops, she wants to learn something from him. Most of all, they share a friendship, not a romantic relationship. (Friendship-with-benefits is on the table, but they have only teenage-level maturity to handle it.) The characters acknowledge it might have become a romantic relationship, given enough time.

Safety in Indifference: The protagonist's motivation in having no friends; if he doesn't have any friends, he can't be hurt, therefore remaining indifferent to others keeps him safe. He repeats this after the Near-Rape Experience and subsequently being beaten down by Sakura's ex-boyfriend, but Sakura convinces him it's worth continuing their friendship.

The Reveal: The protagonist's name and the contents of the Disease Coexistence Journal. In order, his name is Haruki Shiga, and the contents of the diary include a will directed specifically at Haruki for him to read after her death. An example exclusive to the novel's epilogue. The protagonist tells a story to Sakura about his First Love, a girl who referred to everything, even inanimate objects with "-san". He later reveals, while visiting Sakura's grave, that he lied (not having the heart to correct Sakura due to seeing her reaction), and the phrasing he uses afterwards heavily implies Sakura was his First Love.

Meaningful Echo: The words "I want to eat your pancreas" are said several times in the story. They originally come up under the Black Comedy Cannibalism context with Sakura explaining that eating a healthy person's organs was believed to cure one's own diseased organ and therefore joking she should eat the protagonist's to cure her own illness. They come up again as the last words of Sakura and the protagonist to each other, the protagonist's final text to Sakura and the last words of Sakura's will, expressing the depth of their relationship by that point.

Meaningful Name: "Sakura", or cherry blossoms, are known for being extremely beautiful flower that only lasts for a week in April. Sakura is extremely energetic and optimistic, only to be revealed that she has pancreatic cancer and has a limited time to live, which gets cut short due to her murder. "Haruki" takes its first kanji from the word "haru", or spring, the season where cherry blossoms bloom. Our protagonist "blooms" Sakura into becoming the person she wants to be, and he does the same. She even remarks on the coincidence of their names matching so well in her will. In the sequel novel, Fuyumi, the protagonist's daughter. Fuyu, or Winter, comes after Spring.

An example exclusive to the novel's epilogue. The protagonist tells a story to Sakura about his First Love, a girl who referred to everything, even inanimate objects with "-san". He later reveals, while visiting Sakura's grave, that he lied (not having the heart to correct Sakura due to seeing her reaction), and the phrasing he uses afterwards heavily implies Sakura was his First Love.

Not So Stoic: The protagonist, three times: See Near-Rape Experience above After Sakura is killed, he is so visibly distraught he refuses to attend her funeral and doesn't recover enough to visit her family home until days later. The animated adaptation amplifies this by showing him walking out of the living room after seeing the news broadcast announcing her death and stumbling on the stairs to his room, unable to get up. After reading Sakura's farewell message, the protagonist finally sobs in front of her mother.

Cherry Blossoms: Heavily present in the story, especially given the main female protagonist is called Sakura and the beginning of the story takes place in early spring, rife with cherry blossoms.

Sakura also compares herself to a cherry blossom tree, waiting to meet Haruki (whose name means 'spring') to bloom, in her diary.

Will They or Won't They?: The story goes back-and-forth on whether the protagonist and Sakura will act on their feelings. It ultimately doesn't matter, seeing as Sakura dies by the end. The heavy implication is that the only reason they didn't act on their feelings was due to Sakura's impending death, however.
