Enjoyable thriller
This manga is a psychological thriller. The story is based around Sakuma, a male teacher who almost has an affair with a younger woman. The woman turns out to be high school age, which he discovers when she unexpectedly appears as a student in his class. Sakuma fears for his career and his marriage, and wonders what her intentions are. Meanwhile, in the background, a darker plot is gradually emerging…
There’s some slightly more gory/violent scenes that you wouldn’t have predicted from the cover, and also mild sexual content that appears in volume 2.
It was a good read as an intermediate manga. There are no furigana and some less common kanji at times. But the story kicks along at a good pace which makes it difficult to put down. There’s some nice two page artwork spreads, and I enjoyed some of the drawings of real world locations.
