Plot Concept: Love… or Destruction?
Kuroe Akaishi, a high-school girl suffering from a mysterious illness, has always lived avoiding others because of her awkwardness in social situations. One fateful encounter leads her to fall in love with Arata Minami—the most popular boy in her class. And the moment she realizes her feelings, the dormant power within her awakens… A battle between love and reason is in conflict.
A shocking twist that shatters the conventions of shoujo manga is about to sweep across Japan!
