About the series
In this dark fantasy horror manga from Yen Press, a high school girl named Miran becomes entangled with a mysterious, monstrous being that claims it wants to devour her—but only after she has experienced the peak of happiness. The series, launched in 2024 and ongoing, is written and illustrated by Sai Naekawa, whose atmospheric art and psychological tension have drawn comparisons to classic horror-tinged coming-of-age stories. With six issues released so far, it explores themes of mortality, desire, and the strange bonds that form between predator and prey.
