An old horror trope being reused in a yuri manga. Pubescent girl suddenly develops telekinesis (because... you know... pubescent mood swings) and has to flee society because she has early Bruce Banner levels of self control over her rage. A virtual outcast, she comes to a small, remote town to hide (note to all humanity: a sparsely populated rural area is the absolute worst place to hide) but as a wise man once said "No matter where you go, there you are." Being an outcast she comes to empathize with another outcast (Kon). Eventually the small town population becomes aware of her ability, tensions escalate, a torch-and-pitchfork wielding mob forms and the lovers go into hiding. Then bad stuff happens yada yada yada a major crisis erupts yada yada yada our heroine saves the day yada and so on and we a Lifetime channel lesson in appreciating and accepting each other's differences THE END.

You would be amazing at Cinema Sins!!

With that ending it leads me to think that the monster in the hole may not be as mythical as it's first supposed to be … after all "That is not dead which can eternal lie, And with strange aeons even death may die".

Too right! Bully girl, her boy-toy and abalones too!

Page #7 "Maybe I have some kind of sickness..."
If the sickness is yuri then I don't need a cure! :-)

This is a great manga, anime when?

More foreshadowing in chapter 2: Kon saw a monster before...

Did it just turn supernatural?

The beginning of the story has them getting saved by a sea monster.

I 100% forgot about the giant sea monster in the beginning. I have no idea where this is leading, but I'm looking forward to it nonetheless.

Yep! It's not like that was a RANDOM het couple being shown gettin' together in the beginning. Nope, it was the guy who hit on Furuka and the mean girl from Kon's class.

Definitely some major foreshadowing there... and Kon suggests that the monster saved their lives on page #27:

But for some reason she doesn't remember it... Hmmm.... Perhaps they've met before, since it certainly looks like Furuka has some connection to this monster...

After a year of publication, we have roughly an episode and a half of material… so, maybe in 9 or 10 years we'll have a full season. :þ Unless they make a movie.

^ They're Kei and Chiyoko from Act-Age, a fantastic series about, well, acting (there are official English translations on Mangaplus). There's no romance in it (yet), but the authors definitely know how the shipper's mind works.

Exhibit 1

Exhibit 2

Exhibit 3

Exhibit 4

Exhibit 5

Not to mention that chapter cover where Chiyoko holds a white lily…

Suddenly, this flipped the table on my expectations of a low-key is it/isn't it monster story. Amusingly, even.

A perfectly banal everyday teenage catfight over stupid, petty shit is interrupted by a sudden and inexplicable Mythos incident.

I can't believe it's not Dowman Sayman!

Don't you just hate it when chapters end with plot points hanging up in the air like this ...

Nice...


Re-reading through ch. 1 & 2, I'm not fully convinced that that was Furuka's doing. Chapter 2 especially makes her seem like a normal girl. Although there are a few small things in chapter 1 that could be called foreshadowing for her being supernatural. I guess we'll have to wait and see at this point.

Also, Kon a cute.

That, or she doesn't want Kon to see the bloody remains of Mari's body splattered on the ground.
