Her life takes a turn when she meets Kurō Sakuragawa, a man who has recently gone through a breakup. Kotoko, who has harbored a crush on him for years, quickly discovers that Kurō is not a normal human. Having consumed the flesh of both a mermaid and a kudan (a prophetic beast) as a child, he possesses the terrifying gifts of immortality and the ability to choose between potential futures. Together, this unlikely duo navigates a world where the truth is often less important than the "fiction" used to keep the peace. Key Themes and Unique Appeal
