1. Namae no nai Uma (A Horse with No Name) The story (the prequel to MARS) takes place after Rei and Tatsuya enter High School. Tatsuya, who at the time has a crush on Kira, dislikes Rei and picks fights with him. After the climatic motorcycle chase between Rei and a reckless gang of bikers, Tatsuya and Rei begin a new friendship. Other main characters of MARS like Harumi are also presented. The other two chapters are earlier works of the author non-pertaining to MARS: 2.

But what if he's interested in Nina? (Source: Anime News Network, edited)
