The series is not a completely factual and accurate history of Aya's life. I don't believe it was meant to be. It's an adaptation of her diary.
Kito Aya wasn't good at sports. She never had a boyfriend. The character Asou didn't exist. Many people didn't understand her disease and treated her poorly for it. She was plagued by doubt, fear and uncertainty her entire, short, life. She was human and she was beautiful.
Her mother, Shioka, wanted this to be a better version of Aya's life, a happier story. I don't fault her at all for it. It was enjoyable.
If you can find it, read the diary, then watch this. It is a story sometimes unbearable to read. It's heartbreaking in it's entirety. I actually appreciate the way this story was told in this series.
The series is very much worth watching and appreciating.
