Manami is always up to some mischief, playing tricks on her classmates, yet Ayumu has begun to strike back and refuses to stay a passive target. Ayumu's school days are turning bleak, and the homeroom teacher starts to see that something is badly wrong. Still, the teacher is reluctant to accept that a student is being bullied inside her own class, which leaves the troubled girl without an ally. This is a story of cruelty, friendship and fragile loyalty among young people at a Japanese school, told in a restless, emotional style that keeps the tension high from one page to the next.
