Read the full take
Sada is an earnest high-school teacher, admired by students and colleagues alike. One night he stumbles upon a student being attacked in an alley, and as he tries to help, he is drawn into something far more disturbing. The premise is a horror romance in which kindness becomes a trap and the line between victim and monster grows blurry.The strength is the atmosphere. The story builds unease well, and Sada's decency makes his situation feel tragic. The eerie tone and the unsettling reveals keep the pages tense.The weaknesses are about intensity. The violence and horror are strong, and the short run leaves some threads open. Readers wanting a gentler romance will find the tone too dark.Recommended for fans of creepy horror with a romantic thread. Expect a tense, unsettling read that is short but sharp.
